Day 17 Slogging

The ground is extremely wet, the grass soaked my shoes within ten feet of the beds.  Planting the rest of the broccoli into the lasagna bed and the hugelkultur bed, the killing mulch is like moving cold spinach aside, with worms quickly moving aside so I can drop in the seeds.  The compost pile  had a six inch layer of grass clippings on them, with only the first three inches soaked, the rest was dry.

Both the wicking bed and the hugelkultur bed are showing signs of life, the snow peas beginning to dig themselves in.

Two beds, 30 minutes.
