Less Tree = More Sun
Remember a few short monthes ago when I posted this? Well my garden is even happier today. My dad came over again armed with a 50 foot lift and a chainsaw on a pole.
Brian, actually D was the limb collector once they fell and nearly was decapitated on at least one occasion... Ben/Danika, yes more garden! I expect to expand another 40 or 50 square feet next spring, although may have to start assembling a few raised beds due to all the roots from that huge tree. But the garden is already producing more...I have a zucchini that I could use as a baseball bat! Tan, yes, I am so happy to have someone who wants to climb all the way up there! We're gonna skirt the other huge trees in the backyard after D get's back in October!
Good decision! Your plant will thank you.
ReplyDeleteYour dad rocks!!! Love that extra sun!
ReplyDeleteBy the way: I notice that D is not risking life and limb in this endeavor...
ReplyDeletethat is so great! garden expansion?
