After amending my crappy Door County soil that makes up my garden with four bales of peat moss and eight bags of composed manure I tilled it once before the rains came. After it dried-out I rototilled it again.
May 15 - I planted peas, two varieties of radish and sowed three types of lettuce.
Peas emerged a couple of days ago...

And the radishes peeked-out yesterday...
Today I planted seven varieties of tomato plants - including a couple of San Marzano I scored at a new greenhouse; two basil, a rosemary and Italian parsley plant constituted the herbs. This was followed by four sweet pepper and five broccoli plants. I sowed a row of beets, green beans and an additional variety of lettuce. Yes, fresh salads are in our future; fingers crossed.
If time allows; tomorrow I'll sow the pumpkins and cukes and whatever else trips my trigger. When you live halfway between the equator and the North Pole the growing season is short. Time's a wastin!
Vive le Jardin Magnifique!
