Now that we're more settled in and spring has arrived, we're starting to decide what to do with the yard. One thing that C's been clamoring for is a vegetable garden, so I spent a couple weekends building a planter box out of a couple wooden pallets. We got some free compost from Sunnyvale, some plants from a nursery, and we're now in the gardening business. We're starting with rosemary, thyme, mint, basil, tomatoes, and a couple Chinese vegetables I can't identify.
The box is 3'x3' and is based on the ideas behind square foot gardening. We'll see how well it works...
