Got it plumbed, taped, tested, mulched, and ready for plants and only checks bare wrist three weeks left til Frost Date.

Hugel got the same treatment, but I was a bit shy on the mulch. I usually use crushed leaves from my backyard for this, but I didn’t have near enough to do everything I’m laying down. This Fall I’m definitely gonna drive through the neighborhood snatching the leaf bags folks put out.

Suckers. Just giving away free brown

    The squash arch is an interesting idea. Now I just need to figure out where to put one in my garden.

      I pulled my inspiration from Self-Sufficient Me. Love Mark’s huge tunnels. The excuse you can use is “it saves so much space!”

      Going vertical saves a ton of space and makes harvest easy. Squash, gords, pumpkins, cucumbers, beans, peas will happily grow up if you get the right varieties. Trombettas make a decent zucchini substitute, have a very amusing shape, and climb/grow like crazy.
