Okay, so, this is Texas, which means that we've either already had our last freeze, or else we're a month away from having our last freeze.
Makes planting something of a mystery.
Anyway, we've put tons and tons of compost (or at least wheelbarrows and wheelbarrows of it) on our 10 raised beds; we've mulched the blackberries, which are beginning to sprout, and we've got plans to buy a cistern for rainwater collection.
And... we started a blog.
More pictures to come soon. I want y'all to be impressed, but without getting the wrong idea. We're amateurs. Ambitious amateurs, but amateurs nonetheless.

About Me
- Walden Ponderer
- College Station, Texas, United States
- "ME" is really "WE"; we're a family of 4; husband and wife both come from "rural stock", but were raised by PBS. We got married because we both love Jane Austen novels, which, when you think about it, is a lousy reason to get married. We got lucky, though. We're both sturdier than you'd think, given our effete intellectual tendencies. And we're both willing to shovel chicken poop, which is a major plus if you are planning on microfarming in the middle of town.
