A vegetable garden

When we arrived here, Jim had said we could dig up a garden if we wanted too, so last Saturday I got digging. It took about two and a half hours of quite hard work, as the ground was very hard. I took the turf off first and then dug down about a spade depth. I wet it a bit and that helped quite a lot. I have planted silver beet, spring onions, lettuces, beetroot, beans and a tomato. I have put marigolds around the edge, but I will need another punnet of those.

It's not very big, but it will give us some fresh veges over the summer. I think I will get another tomato plant for the right hand corner too.
