This is what is going on in my garden June 2018!

Month’s To Do List:

  • (not done) Rototill the back corn area by the grapes

  • (not done) Plant/Transplant in remaining pots
  • (partially done) Level dirt around the corn/okra/fruit tree areas
  • (partially done) Set up scalloped brick around remaining fruit trees (to match our plum trees), so that it helps when deep-watering and fertilizing, and now also discourages Tyson from peeing on the trunks…….sheesh!…..male dogs!
