Potatoes and beans coming along nicely. Cabbage started to get heads. Had a couple helpers today, they got so dusty we had to stop for milkshakes on the way home ;)

Living mulch in the garden and tomatoes (although I was behind this year are taking off). The living mulch has a little weed pressure but it’s great. I’ll continue to mow it down every two weeks or so.

NITROBOOST is seeded into the rows- aiding in feeding soil and helping increase water infiltration. See picture two of the beans I’ve pulled to check on N fixation - it’s been rocking!!

Not far from there - my pollinator patch is kicking it into gear.

All things we do are connected, and starting with the soil be it for wildlife or for our food - is a darn good place to start!
 
My winter project has been identified. I'm going to build a giant horseshoe using this as my reference and fence it in. I'm tired of messing with temporary fencing that doesn't work (deer jumped it and ate everything but the peppers and maters). It's time for a little more structure for the garden at Shoestring Acres.

I see a lot of galvanized raised beds down here. My neighbor said he’s switching over to them.

Quotation. If you are going to fence in a horse shoe shaped raised bed, why not just fence in your garden?
 
Ive never planted one but Seems like good food plots to me 😬 . On the same note deer were everywhere in the fields today around here all throughout the day
