Garden Baseline

For the past 2 years we have rented a 15'x15' garden plot in an organic community garden in Waltham, MA. This year, we opted for a 2nd garden plot giving us about 30'x30'. The original plan had our 2nd garden directly next to our original garden, this was ideal. However, when we arrived on the first day a new member of the garden had already cleared our 2nd garden spot and begun to plant stuff. The powers that be let him keep that plot (which should have been ours) and gave us a 2nd garden catty-corner to our original garden. Oh well - I guess the early bird gets the worm.

This is our original garden plot (above) with old weed block on it and a pile of mulch.


This is our 2nd plot. You can see our original garden in the top left corner of the image.

These are "before" images of our gardens before we started to clean them and prep for the season.
