Back to the Garden

Officially we're back to the garden, now that North Carolina is in Phase 2 of Coronavirus Response. We are open with social distancing, masks, and bring your own gloves and water.
Fortunately, we've been able to keep up with some maintenance and planting in the garden so that we weren't totally overrun by weeds. The Shelter in Place time allowed more than enough time to start seeds at home for transplanting into the garden. What started as some broccoli and tomato seedlings kept multiplying by twelves into the hundreds, and also allowed the advantage of staying safe, getting plants without having to go out and shop. 



So here we are. Saturday we harvested broccoli and turnips to share with CORA, and planted sweet potato slips. 
The garden is large enough to allow for plenty of space for working without being too close to other gardeners. All in all, there is much to be grateful for.
