Each month I make goals that I want to achieve. February was a pretty productive month all things considered as it was pretty wet. March hopefully will be a drier month, with lots of time to get things done in the garden as it's the run up to the summer gardening season. For March I want to:
Research and try trench composting: The tiered section in the back garden isn't used so far and would be great to work on some composting there so I can 'cook' the stuff in my regular compost pile. Research it this month and try it!
Get raised beds ready for replanting: The winter season is coming to an end, spring is coming, ok it's kinda here already (I mentioned the weird weather right?)! Anyway I need to get harvesting the fall crops, and plan and make room for summer crops!
Keep working on the sidewalk strip: I got a fair bit of the sidewalk strip done in February but was stalled by rain for a big part of the beginning of the month, so March will see a continuation of the sidewalk strip project
Raise bed walkways: Get bark chips! I mentioned previously that though this was a goal for Feb the guy didn't call me back about the free chips till the 25th. He said and I quote "these are all leafy, they'd look like crap round raised beds", so needless to say not going with that option! I'll buy a few bags of bark chips and go from there. Even if it takes a few months, I will get there!
Trellis!: Make trellis for raised beds for Summer tomatoes and cucumbers!!!
I think that's plenty to get going on don't you?
