Unity Urban Garden is coming along well. We have planted a lot of perennials and a few annuals along the borders of the garden as you can see below. We had the chance to attend a free plant and seed giveaway and we are happy to say most of the plants and seedlings we were gifted are healthy! We planted some winter vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage, but they are struggling a bit at this point.
The garden is really really coming together nicely and it is amazing what a few perennials will do! The four o'clock plants in the pics below smell absolutely amazing! They smell better than roses and this is the consensus of us all!
We have been feeding the plants an organic Atlantic fish emulsion every few weeks and the plants are looking healthier. We will definitely be putting down a cover crop over the herb raised beds over winter. We are happy to say we have not had much of an issue with the stray cats...knock on wood, and Mr. Berger has been a silent visitor to feed the cats every now and then. We hope he approves of the work we are doing.
Now it is time to focus more on preparation for the cold months.
Peace!
