What A Way To Spend A Saturday...

11/18/2017

Not the ideal way to spend a Saturday but I hoping that next year my gardens will produce more than the last couple of years. I was disappointed in the garden results needless to say.   I live in a rural area there is always neighbors with animals that produce more manure than they know what to do with....that's why I was able to get a truck load of horse manure that was pretty broke down already.  It took me almost 3 1/2 hours to unload it (mostly by myself).  I unloaded 7 wheel barrows then got smart and moved the truck closer to where I wanted the manure to go and tossed it over the fence and that help cut the time tremendously.  I topped off all my raised bed gardens and the last amount went into my compost area.  This is an inexpensive way to fertilize my garden and I'm truly grateful to have great neighbors like I do.  Don't be afraid to ask your neighbors for compost items-manure, used straw, wood chips, etc.  I wouldn't have thought about getting a truck load of manure until a neighbor read my WANTED sign out by my driveway.  I was happy!  I know that sounds funny I guess I'm easily entertained. Ha ha!  I will post more on the results in the spring. I'm hoping for lots of moisture this Winter whether it's rain or snow.  See why I said what a way to spend a Saturday...ha ha ha.
