Have you ever wondered what happens when a garden is abandoned for 8 months?

Well, wonder no more. This is what we were faced with when we finally returned to our poor little plot. I will not go into the sundry reasons for our flight but, I assure you, they were all very good.

To do list:
clear out this mess
till and make rows
fertilize and MULCH!!
