sherwood garden 2008
last year's modest garden has since ballooned to double it's previous size, due to the massive influx of free awesome compost from some of our housies' work. lots of work from me and annie (and some help from the rest of the house) was also required.
new layout, scale is about 30 feet x 20 feet:
some of the actual garden (unfortunately cropped, as i couldn't get gimp to merge photos correctly):
chard, somewhat recuperated from their transplanting last week:
my weird cubic lattice tomato growth structure that houses 12 of our 33 tomato plants:
king corn's ethanol preserve, or: advances in that art of ironic gardening:
upside-down tomato plants:
fire escape pea and raspberry trellis:

Unknown said: beautiful!the tomato looks great. it has made me think that perhaps the ideal multi-year trellising kit would be an old (and comprehensive (lets steal it back from our cousins)) k'nex set. And you could build a rollercoaster for the aphids to ride on.

rmd said: ooh, didn't know that they might not like being friends. that might be why our broc has sucked while the kale at the opposite end of the garden has been awesome.
