Getting Garden Greedy

The home garden is getting some competition

Now I truly am obsessed with gardening. Today, the downtown community garden opens at Fenton Street and I preside over plot number 24.

And that is going to be my latest and greatest project. I am putting in a row of asparagus. I've got five heirloom tomato plants: Orange Strawberry, Gold Medal Yellow, Missouri Pink Love Apple, Green Zebra and the German Riesentraube. I'll pop in a bunch of pickle cucumbers (because I can't wait to pickle them). And I've got a strawberry and a squash plant, plus some seed to grow sweet peppers.

But the largest delight of all, I've got some neighbors there. Presumably, gardeners. And from them I might get some good gardening love.

Oh, and the sun is out and it's not too hot. But the downside is that they're expecting me at work today. The Putterer has to go be the Editorer. The Putterer
