Yippee! Himself was able to fix the tiller, and got the main garden bed tilled. My neighbors van was in the way so we will have to till the kitchen garden tomorrow.
We had a neighborhood pow wow afterward and made the list of plants. Deb got some tomato plants at Walmart and she is starting seeds for the spinach, more tomato's and the peppers tomorrow.
I drew a picture of a strawberry tower for the menfolk to ponder and see if they can make one. My Grandfather had one here when I was a kid and it was about 6 feet tall by about 4 feet wide at the bottom and 1 foot wide at the top. I grew ooodles of berries in very little space and architecturally it was beautiful all year.
Last night during my nightly insomnia spat, I saw an advertisement for an upside down tomato plant hanger. My friend told me that people in the Carolina's use 5 gallon buckets to grow their tomatoes in and hang them upside down. I'm not quite sure how they stay in the bucket upside down, and I also can't get my mind around how to not have it look really tacky.
If anyone has any ideas let me know.
So progress is being made, and I am pleased.
Have a nice night everyone.
