Sounds like you have been busier than we have but in the last few days we have added another apple tree, three more blueberries, five raspberry canes, two seedless grapes (red and green)...and we expect the delivery ANY time now of another Chinese chestnut and three filberts (hazelnuts). Cabbage, broccoli, lettuce, Swiss shard, spinach, asparagus and kale are producing yummy stuff for our meals. Ohhh...and the red onions in my raised beds are popping up like crazy.

I have planted three hills of cucumber and my hubby is making me a good A-frame so they can climb this year. I have tomatoes started. This week will be adding compost and mulch and getting ready for a big family Easter celebration.

I also found this article on soil amendments this morning:

Amendments that Can Give Your Soil a Boost

Thanks for this thread that gives me so many good ideas. ;-)
