All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

I'm building a new garden for the house I moved into last fall!
Hoping to get some raised beds built later this week using some wood from a deck that I'm tearing down (tested the wood, it's free of arsenic!). Onion seedlings seem to be doing well, they'll go in as soon as the bed is ready and I'll be starting a bunch of other seeds indoors this weekend. Next step is to find a local source of bulk compost and topsoil to fill the beds.
I ordered a couple of apple trees, Honey Crisp and Baldwin varieties, which will arrive in late April or May - later than I'd like but better late this year than waiting for next year!
New gardens, upcycling, local sourcing... I love everything about this! We're in an area where we don't get things we've ordered until around then too, and it's always frustrating because I dislike waiting to plant things
