Long Garden Bed

Last week I spent four hours cleaning out my vegetable boxes. This long garden bed took the most time. It has been in production mostly year round for the last 15 or more years, so I decided to let it rest for a little while. If I change my mind and want to plant it this summer, all I have to do is pull aside the straw and stick it in the soil. The straw keeps the weeds from sprouting, and the worms love it. The rest of my boxes have straw covering them, too. They are ready for when I want to plant.
