My attempts at growing an organic vegetable garden. I have been trying too hard and succeeding less and less. Most people would have quit by now. My garden makes me frustrated and brings me no joy so far-- but I'm going to figure it out. I welcome suggestions and explanations, or just come along for the ride!

Plants are growing!!
The snow has pretty much melted. It snowed on Tuesday, but it's pretty much gone again now. I went out to see if my fall crops have started growing and they have!! There are lots of little spinach plants, little lettuce plants and kale and cilantro!! I have also gotten my soil test results and an organic gardening book and I think I know what a lot my problem has been -- the soil is sandy and alkaline which is a bad combination. I also have hardly any worms. So I am going to feed the worms and fertilize the plants. I hope this the year I have a good garden-- produce and everything is soooooo expensive!!
