My winter and early spring have been so consumed with office stuff that I didn't get a chance to dig a garden. I hired a friend last week to spend a day turning the soil. He leveled my raised beds and I'll rearrange the soil. This lets me circulate good soil that was under pathways for the last couple of years (and had mulch laid down to keep the weeds out - that mulch is now turned over in with everything else).

I picked up a flat of plants on Saturday only to realize that we had two nights of potential freezes, so the plants are in the house till one evening this week when I can get out and work. Okra, tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, herbs, onions, the usual. Beneficial nematodes will be sprayed on the garden plot this evening.
