The cement floor of our old sheep barn (cows and pigs occupied it before we moved here) now houses a new crop.
Dad spent the winter planning his not-so-ordinary garden. When a heart attack slowed him down*, uncles and a young friend helped finish construction.
Part of Dad's winter planning was a scientific study of how to make a soil mixture that is light, holds water and has good nutrition. Here Mom is mixing in some chicken manure.
We have already enjoyed radish and spinach from Dad's gardens. Much more is to come.
*Update on Dad's health: While requiring more rests, Dad is back to all of his activities with the addition of cardiac rehab. He is a model patient - eats well, exercises well, has great vitals. A miracle!
