Last summer we tried. We had good intentions. But I was sick, Chuck had craziness at work, and we never got around to fencing in the newest garden plot. As a result, the neighborhood wild bunnies ate my broccoli.

Yesterday I came home from a baseball game with Amigo and found the wire fence had been tightened up, a gate installed, and my garden safe from bunnies! And when I say gate, I’m not kidding. I don’t know where Chuck found this one, but it’s very sturdy. Cute, too.

He was a little concerned about one of the tomato plants that had been squashed during the building process and the stem broken. I trimmed it, cut it back, and I think it’ll be okay. If not, I have at least one other plant of the same kind.

The back view, behind the new gate, looks pretty good. It’s no-till, so it’s not gorgeous, but everything is growing nicely. If we don’t get rain today, I’ll use the rain barrel supply to water everything tonight.

By the way, I harvested spinach today, too. Anyone want some?
