Platt Park

The Barden is a 200 square foot urban garden in my Platt Park backyard.  It produces primarily vegetables with a few flowers here and there.  In addition, there is a plum tree and a newly planted raspberry bush.  I also have 3 different varieties of hops growing in containers which will eventually be used in the homebrew that i make.
 
 

We just planted the salad and salsa container gardens in our wine barrel halves yesterday. Strawberries, peppers, tomatoes and marigolds went in. We're adding lettuce, cucumber, and green onions today and creating the troughs for our herb garden-cilantro, rosemary, basil, thyme, lemon balm, sage.
Our flower pots are filled and out around the house and I can't wait to prep our compost station next!
 
Pictures coming soon!
