Winter Gardening Update

Yesterday was a big workday in the garden. We tore down two smart pot raised beds and dumped them into our garden plot. We added some seaweed, kelp, homemade compost & coffee grounds and tilled it all in. We tilled another new strip for berry bushes. We took the old tomato vines and added them to our compost pile.

Changed the oil in the tiller too.

Recently we planted 3 Frost Peach Trees. We bought these from a Skagit Valley Nursery. We mulched these yesterday with our homemade compost.

We have had good luck finding used coffee grounds at local coffee shops. We add coffee grounds to our compost pile. Also, we till coffee grounds into our garden. We have been down to the beach recently and have had an easy time finding kelp and seaweed which we use just like the coffee grounds.
