We're back!

In case you're wondering what 2 yards of compost looks like, here it is. We had a delivery truck from Cambridge Bark & Loam come today. I'm hoping this will boost the soil quality at the K-Lo garden as we had some problems last year with blossom-end rot and root compaction. I am also adding a NE nutrient blend this spring.

The truck dumped our compost on the sidewalk outside the garden so we used wheelbarrows to put it on a tarp this morning. We would have mixed some into the beds but the soil is still wet today from rain. Here is a pic of the parent/kid volunteers that helped out (pile is gone)!

And some spring flowers that we planted in the fall with Mr. Kelly's JK class...
