Epworth Veggie Garden



















We had a busy day at the Epworth Veggie Garden. Since Easter is just a couple weeks away, we decided we should paint the poles Easter colors and add some pansies. We also planted some rosemary, broccoli and lettuce. I headed up to Kurtz Brothers to get a truck load of leaf compost. We added this compost around some of the plants and spread the rest out in the garden. I'll till this compost in when the soil is dry enough for me to till. This compost will slowly provide some additional nutrients to the soil and help break up the clay. We'll probably look at adding some nitrogen to the soil when we add the tomatoes and peppers.
