Last year I went from 4 small raised beds to a 400 sq ft in-ground garden and added a few more raised beds. To say that was a ton of work is an understatement. I spent every spare moment building it (and then maintaining, harvesting and preserving it all š)
This year I’m expanding my garden to around 1000 sq ft. I’m adding berry bushes, asparagus and a tea/medicinal/culinary herb garden.
A lot of people I know think I’m weird, but this was completely normal for families decades ago. Is it a massive undertaking while also working as a nurse? Hell yeah. But is it worth it? Double hell yeah.
I love when people ask me questions about my gardening/chickening. If I can inspire 3 of my Instagram followers to grow something, my work here is done. š
