To do List

now that it's starting to be fall like I thought I'd write down an actual "to do list" perhaps it will all get done that way :)


  • dig out beds, layer in mulch and compost, plant cover crop seeds
    • buy cover crop seed
    • rake out chicken run to get mulch for beds
  • make hard apple cider
    • buy cider supplies-buckets, yeast, large pot for cooking
    • rent cider press from tool library
    • pick apples
  • add "debris board" to the bottom of the chicken run - hopefully using scrap wood
  • go thru seeds - order any new 
  • set up seed growing space in basement
    • set up old dining room table
    • locate grow light  & extension cords
    • organize gardening supplies
    • buy compost to start seeds in
    • bring small pots and seed trays into basement
  • Decide how many beds we want and offer others to friends 
    • they will need to amend soil too
  • Create winter tool storage space
    • back porch or shed
    • move all tools into storage space
      • clean tools off first
I think that's all of the major things - I'm hoping to get all of this done by the end of October so that in November we can focus on starting seeds!
