The soil we inherited was in terrible condition when we started, so I didn’t get nearly the harvest of food I would have liked, but we did pretty well, all things considered.
Keeping this garden moist has been the biggest challenge, as the Okanagan is the driest watershed in Canada.
Looking forward to posting more this summer and fall to compare how far we’ve come!

After cedar removal – 2013
BEFORE-September 2013 SO much cedar shake to clean up! Not much will grow here. We removed the wheelchair ramp on the right to gain access to the backyard.

Doing much better, but still have work to do
