Grow Food Not Lawns ~ Hacketts Cove, Canada ~ Update 2

We've Finally Got the Potatoes In

I have my boys to thank. Little Kiedis and Stryder helped me weed this crazy patch and turn it into a garden ready for taters. They are all planted and mounded up now.

As you can see around the potato patch I have a lot more work to do yet. I decided just to take it super easy and only weed one row a day. My energy levels have been atrocious since the winter, however I am continuing to weed and plant each day and slowly but surely things are getting done.
