Before.... and After!

There's not a lot to be done during summer in this garden, except to relish the product of all that excited labouring beforehand. So I found myself recently browsing the pics of the garden since it started about 6 months ago. 6 months! That's all the time it's taken to get an empty backyard to turn into a productive organic garden.  I had genuinely forgotten how different everything looked beforehand. And as everyone loves a good 'Before...and After' shot, I've taken a few to add here. 

Thanks garden - sweet mother of corn, you're good. 

The Beans. Before...........

After.....!

The First Garden Bed. Before...

After (its a jungle in there...)

A pile of bricks left by the previous tenant. Before.... 

After....an outdoor armchair!! (absent: large pillows)

The Sunflowers. Before.....(everyone - sigh)

After .... I'm a lumberjack.

The Tomatoes. Before.... (pre-planting, Luke attends to the babies..)

After .... (a couple of days away from eating!)
