A wrap on the garden beds, a kick-ass protest in Raleigh, and hanging with the kids in the pool: couldn't ask for a better weekend all things considered. #ncgardening #FDT
🌱The taller raised beds are filled, drip irrigation set up. The radishes and spinach are just sprouting. #ncgardening
Autumn is my favorite season, that is until spring surprises me and gives me hope after a bleak winter, this one made bleaker by the chaos engulfing my country. These lovelies, split from my late Mom's, greeted me. #zone7b #gardeningfeed #bloomscrolling for sanity. #ncgardening 🌱
Back at it. Rough cut oak delivered, cut, stacked, and charred. Enough for 4 8x3x2 ft beds ready for assembly. Can't wait to get them built, filed, and planted. Ready for the inflation, hoarding, suspicion, and next great depression yet? #homesteading #ncgardening
Looks so much better in the bed down from my porch than it ever does in the bag at the store. #mebane #ncgardening #lettuce #gardening
Bye January! Only two weeks until Gardener's World starts back on BritBox.
We'll see beautiful weather, ~60°F /15.56°C today, February 1, 2025, #Winston-Salem, North Carolina. (36.096260, -80.243736) #ncgardening
Let the #gardening season begin.
Raised Garden Re-Do:
I am replacing my first attempt raised gardens with taller, galvanized steel bed encasements. In #zone7b, for 1-ft bed depth, any recommendations on strata and amounts? My guess is a layer of vermiculite, next dark composty goodness, then garden friendly topsoil. #ncgardening

I'm seeing daffodils poking through the soil.

Asparagus crown transplanting this morning. Jury is still out on if I enjoyed it, but I'm happy it's done. Do what needs doing. #ncgardening #gardening #getshitdone #asparagus #mebane

What flower bulbs are you planting to plant for spring blooms?
