Garden is Closed


The garden is offically closed for the season. Saturday Jeff planted garlic and shallots and tilled in the compost that was ready. Then he covered it with all the leaves that could be collected near by. I was assigned the leaf blower and moved a fair pile to the garden for Jeff to spred around. Then together we cleared the rest of the lawn and he filled the compost bins. (Photos to follow...need new memory card for the camera.)

Sunday the new panry was assembled. Actually, the old sewing room was cleared out and cleaned, new shelves put up and all the jars labled and put on the shelves. It looks very impressive to me but Jeff is wishing we had done more. Hopefully, there's next year to look forward to. He's already busy ordering heirloom seeds.

I've been knitting...hats and scarves for swaps and the shop. Tried to knit snowflakes with crochet thread...think I'll go back to crocheting them!
