Starting a fresh

Well the garden has been laying bare for some time now. I cannot remember when we had something in there, but I am sure it was before summer hit us.

So, since it is getting cooler, and we like cabbage, broccoli and other vegetables, it was about time that we started getting the garden ready for produce.

There is still a lot of work to do. We have 4 hens, and they killed everything we had in our garden this past summer, so a fence needs to go up before any planting can take place. Weeds need to be removed. Rubble from the previous owners needs to be moved and then we can have a nice clean area to work in and not worry about snakes or other nasties hiding in there.

This is a family effort, with the kids taking an active (and sometimes they are in the way) role in getting the garden ready. They are happy to be outside and helping their father work in getting the weeds out of the garden bed.
