My application of wood ash in their runs seems to have fixed that. I've also applied caster bean plants liberrally. Not much activity so far this year. Will be applying more of the same to other areas this year.

Raspberries, but the fruit trees are now going into their 4th season, loaded with fruit buds so we are hoping for a great orchard harvest this year!

We're getting there. Both go on my rather large compost pile. That sucker is 4 ft high, 10 ft wide and 30 ft long. Need to turn it to get the new weed crop incorporatated. My garden is getting to close to half sand and half compost. Heat and drought was a problem last year. Hear it will be more of the same this year.

Mules that eat the weeds and turn them into poop.
And we seem to be able to grow whatever we need to. Especially tomatoes.

Depends on the year, but recently bell peppers, carrots, and green beans. Sometimes snow peas when there is a long cool fall. White pumpkins (winter squash seeds from Jnap from Bosnia) one year; the vines were 40 ft long and productive! A lot were stolen, they were that beautiful. Tasted great, too.

Dirt? And mess. Seems like around here things are always like that Cat in the Hat story where the mess gets all over the place. I am still waiting for that Cat to come clean up before I get home one day.
We do have a healthy crop of Sage and Greek Oregano. I don't use them that much but for some reason, they love our Garden and grow year round. Strange to see them growing right up out of the snow.

Since we just moved here last October, we don't really know what the garden will produce for us this year.
Thus far the best crop is leaves off the multitudes of trees though!

Chives. We planted some last year and it's spread everywhere. All the critters have chive breath now.

I am a master weed gardener! As for veggies, I have the best luck with squash...zucchini and yellow squash.

Got to put in some more concrete. Grows great grass.
Ok I have some alfalfa and clover doing fine. My onions, garlic, lettuce, radishes. beans and peas are up. Gonna sow some lentils for a cover crop. Bought my beans and lentils at the grocery store for a buck a pound. That is a third of the farm supply price.

We usually have better success with late crops such as pumpkins, squash, turnips, and greens. Hot weather crops that do best for us are tomatoes and lima beans.
