Meighan's Side Fence Veggies garden

Created on Saturday, 19 Apr 08

I created this garden bed last year by ripping up the sod, 3 feet wide, all along the side of the fence. I amended the soil with mushroom manure, compost from my composter, and a few other things. My intentions were to grow tomatoes along here, unfortunately they did not do as well as I had expected and they all ended up getting blight. Since they got blight I can’t try tomatoes again this year, so I’m doing veggies instead, in a semi square-foot way.
