I was dreading getting this started. I thought the digging would take ages and wear me out beyond standing. why? I don’t know. I dug entire stone paths while pregnant. …perhaps that’s why…. Anyway, while I was digging, I noticed that my soil is actually pretty beautiful, if a bit clay-y. If I haven’t said before, I live on former prairie land, it would be extra sad if the soil had just given up. I hope to re-prairie-tize my little postage stamp of land. And - oh, yea - this green house base will help me do it. it’s not finished yet.
