The Garden was Dead

In the paraphrased words of Charles Dickens: "The Garden was dead, to begin with." It's now totally gone to seed... er, gone fallow... and as the weather seems to be brightening up, I think it will soon be time to turn over the soil and start again.

My plan this year is to increase the size of the garden bed, and the depth. I'm also going to install drip irrigation instead of using the sprinkler heads as this killed a lot of my squash this year.

In the meantime, I picked up my CSA box this week. It's totally full of dark leafy greens. We are so healthy! But I'm looking forward to a change of pace to break up all of the green. Spring is just around the corner (at least, it is in California).
