Mornings were a little cooler this week and gardeners turned out in force to begin applying compost and other amendments recommended in our most recent soil test. We'll be planting seedlings and seeds over the next several weeks. Also underway is a make-over of the 4-H area of the garden and big plans are being finalized for the re-design of Bed 5 and the VegHeadz area in that garden.
We've been concentrating on organic amendments this season, as our soil tests showed we were deficient in some elements. As a result of our research and calculations, we've added several resources about fertilizing your garden to our list on the left side of this blog. We hope they will assist you with your garden.
We also welcome three new VegHeadz gardeners who have showed up with energy and dedication. They are such a welcome addition to our faithful crew.

Looks like you are working hard on your garden. Excellent tip in telling others the results of your soil test. I am always amazed at the number of people who simply don't get their soil tested. Testing is a great way to know exactly what your soil needs to make it better, thus making your garden better.
