Abandoning the Plot

Yesterday as I looked out on my little garden and picked out the weeds, it occured to me that I won't get to see the fruits of my labour this year. In about three weeks I'll be gone, off to another city. The finalization of this happened only

Square Foot Gardening Review

This year, as I was faced with the task of starting up our veggie garden relatively from scratch, I did a bunch of research into garden design, veggie growing, etc and settled on trying the Square Foot method. I did this for two reasons really. The first
