Next year, I'm hoping summer will be a big planting season because I'll set up drip irrigation, via a hand pump, on our annual garden. This summer was so dry that without an efficient watering system (which was illegal this summer), annual vegetables just couldn't survive. The summer is the nice long season for tomatoes, peppers, eggplant etc. But the two also run into eachother-- I'll start my tomatoes indoors in June, then I can actually get tomatoes without irrigation if I plant out in late July/August. We have some rain usually May-September, but the weather has been tough the last couple of years.Concrete Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12368862362127742038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026557319568945115.post-43173900379427668312017-03-29T20:07:01.469-04:002017-03-29T20:07:01.469-04:00I love the penguin photos!

I'm curious to hear why your planting season coincides with ours.. is it because your winters are wetter?Dannyhttp://squibix.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026557319568945115.post-4308891348543918402017-03-29T12:42:20.456-04:002017-03-29T12:42:20.456-04:00Great work, Noah!
