It not as elaborate as what many of you have or what I used to do when the boys lived with us, but it's our little annual victory garden. Just finished up de-weeding and turning the earth with the hand shovel. Now it's ready for the wife to start planting our tomatoes, peppers and whatever herbs she cares to grow this year.

Next project is for the local deer herd. Look for it in
"what you do for the deer today?" thread.
Had to revisit the garden this afternoon. The wife and I attended the 'Adena Mansion & Gardens'
( https://www.adenamansion.com/tickets/ ) plant sale last Saturday and purchased twice as many plants this year so, I had to increase the size of this year's garden for that reason.
It's now a 10' x 15' rectangle. I hand-shoveled and raked everything out that doesn't need to be in it. All the pulled up sod has been replanted at a couple of low rut locations near the barn. Just finished cleaning everything up for this evening and now I'm beat. I'll finish her up tomorrow by planting everything we currently have, which all of the plants are completely organically grown from nonengineered seeds, nothing but the real original deal.
If you've never been to 'Adena Mansion & Gardens' in Chillicothe, I have to say, its really a wonderful place to go visit sometime. A lot of Ohio and early country history can be revisited or discovered there. In fact, the Great Seal of Ohio originally was inspired from that very location -

Anyhow, thought I'd add my very latest garden update. We're gonna have at least twice as much veggies this fall, which is always a good thing!
