We are having an unusual warm spell here in Pa, it has been up to 40 yesterday and today and will be 50 tomorrow and maybe 60 Sat. It rained yesterday and it will rain tomorrow, but I took advantage of the unseasonable warn spell to go out and dig in the Garden today.
I started to excavate a new Hugalbed last Nov and want to finish it way before spring. It is a bit bigger than the last several beds and is right beside the last plot I did last spring for the tomatoes. This one is 8 ft wide and 16 ft long. I have again been able to get a little bit deeper than the last bed, but not evenly so, some parts are deeper than other places in the hole.
I am hitting a lot of rock in this hole, I mean A LOT of Rock. Mostly all rock as a matter of fact. I do not know how the Veggies were able to put down roots at all through some of this solid sand stone.
This is the sub soil and rock that I have dug out so far, I am now about 90% done with digging the rock out, soon I will start to sift it back in the hole.
This hole has been harder than some. I am almost totally done with the left 1/2 of the garden. it feels good.
Never doubt that a small group of dedicated people can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
