What we have covered so far

So, here's what we have so far:

I think the first thing we need to do is go to Lowe's and buy a measuring tape wheel, so we know what dimensions we are dealing with. This way we can draw up a mock garden to play with on paper.

Tilling:
  • Check the size of the tiller from Lance
  • Go to Lowe's and rent one if this isn't appropriate.
Composting:
  • Buy boards for composting
  • Buy container to keep weekly compost in from house.
  • Do a lil' research on composting to figure out how we can max the potential for this.
Diggin' in the Dirt:
  • Buy rakes, hoes, shovels
  • Think about setting up that electric fence
  • Figure out where that water is going to come from and if we need some hoses
Planting
  • Buy string and wooden steaks
  • make sure the seeds are far enough apart
  • Irrigation made from PVC (pulley system later to raise the hoses up for watering)
Music!!!
  • Buy an ipod stereo for music to keep us going in the heat :)
