Week 1: Seeds

This week has been very eventful at the garden. A large space in the garden has already been taken up by a myriad of vegetables, some of which are Yaya carrots, Nabechan onions, Arugula, and Red Russian Kale. All of the vegetables that have been planted are outdoors, but we do have plans to start growing tomatoes and peppers indoors before transplanting them outside into the garden. Unfortunately, though, we have not had enough people to actually begin planting indoors. The reason we don't just plant the tomatoes and peppers in the garden right now is because they need to be grown in a more stable environment in order to grow, for more info on transplanting vegetables click here. We hope to start planting the tomatoes and peppers as soon as we have enough people to do it. We are also thinking about what else to plant in the remaining garden space, we were thinking about peas and beans. The soil in about a quarter of the garden has been turned, this means that we have churned up and mixed the soil around before planting in it.
