What prepping is everyone up to this week? Remember, it does't have to be something you can hold in your hands; if you can't afford to buy something, learn something new instead!
Picking up my part of the work peeps group buy today; so comforting to know I have a group of like minded people where I work on the off chance I ever get stuck there for a lengthy period of time!
I plan to pick up a flat of strawberries on Monday or Tuesday - still can't bend my right knee well enough to crawl down the rows to pick my own, though I may try... Strawberry jam, strawberry puree for making fruit leather or for flavoring lemonade or other drinks, and strawberry shortcake are on work list.
Hoping to get a few things planted in the flower bed turned garden bed tomorrow as well - one 10' fence of pole beans, two cherry tomatoes, a bell pepper (might grab a second one), a container sweet potato (old horse trough), a few herbs, and my beloved zinnias are going to have to do me this year. I also have a flat of about 50 coneflowers I need to plant out somewhere - they will likely go in a row to grow a bit, then be transplanted out next year.
It's a work weekend, so I'm headed out early to pick up donuts for the crew... Take care all; wishing you a safe and productive week!
