Well, I've been here 2 weeks and have started to settle in a little. Checked out the community garden about 1/2 mile from us. Will get a spot as soon as I have the money. Start up cost $125.00 after that its just $75.00 every 6 months. It is all organic growing and year round. BUT first I have to change the license on my Jeep and my drivers license to Calif. Cost: about $350.00 That will wipe me out for this check. So will have to wait til Sept check to get my garden space. In the mean time, I am working on what little space I have here to garden.
In checking out what is already here, I discovered a poor little pink hydrangea hidden under an out of control jade plant. I've cut the jade plant back to give the poor hydrangea some room. I'll remove the rest of the jade plant as well as other bushes out there over this weekend. My son will be gone to his dad's birthday party, so I'm on my own for 4 days. I'll be busy wacking down some bushes.
