Gardeneer

The garden is finally in, I went home for the long weekend and came back to a nicely planted garden that two of my housemates worked on! We have a great selection of tomatoes, zucchini, spinach, peas and carrots, lets just hope this mountain of soil grows a majestic garden. But let me tell you that Guelph's planting zone is 5b, 5B! Where I'm originally from (up north) you would never consider buying those beautiful colourful flowered plants because our soil is around a 3b..thats brutal. 
Annnd yesterday on my way home from orientation at the ovc I came across this sign written "free" on it, what was below this sign were framed screens and windows! Clever as I am I asked my housemate to walk back with me to bring them back to our garden. The other morning we had a discussion about getting some kind of fence for our garden because of the over population of wild rabbits and skunk, so instead were going to use these screens and windows to build a barrier around the garden. After this rain stops I'll finish digging them in and take a picture...
