- Plant something: peas along the fence, swiss chard, spinach and bok choy in a rather shady planter box out front – we’ll see how they do. A bit more spinach, mesclun lettuce and mustards. I got a late start this week for a couple peppers I traded seeds for. Transplanted kale and cabbage outside – a couple haven’t survived, but I’ve replaced them with some extra seedlings I started. Moved gooseberries, blackberries and sage to their permanent locations.
- Harvest something: Nope
- Preserve something: Also nope
- Waste not: coffee grounds on the newly planted peas – I hear it’s good for them, but have never done it before.
- Want not: a friend delivered some composted manure, which I really needed to amend the new beds I’m digging this year – my soil is practically pure sand
- Community food systems: Not really
- Eat the food: finally used up the butternut squash in a ‘pumpkin’ orzo
