OH YAY I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED but honestly i haven't planned all the details yet, it's mostly that my kitchen garden that i started two years ago has completely grown over (the depression's been real) 😭

so i'm going to salvage all my little strawberry plants and maybe see if i can dig up some jerusalem artichokes for replanting (didn't even harvest them last year lol so i definitely have to dig some up or they will be crowded). then i'm gonna till the whole area and rearrange the beds (i just make the edges out of fieldstones, they're not raised) so they are a little narrower but longer! so hopefully it will be easier to reach in and pull weeds. at the very least i will replant the strawberries and probably have potatoes (they grow really well, our soil is excellent), onions, spinach, carrots etc. and then spread wood chips (from a tree we had cut down) in the lanes between the beds!

sidenote i live in bumfuck nowhere basically (it was super cheap for so much space though) so the garden is overall very large (and old), i also have apples and plums and cherries and rhubarb in different places 🥰 and lots of flowers and bushes and like some little wildernesses

i will also make a real effort to get my climbing rose to grow this year but unfortunately the deer and/or hares (haven't caught the culprits but it could be either) love to eat it 😭 i also have a blackcurrant bush that nearly died+got eaten during the drought last year (it came back to life a little bit after i dug it up and put it in a pot) plus some potted flowers that have NOT been happy to live in pots on my patio so i might try and plant those and see what happens! the good thing is that i have access to plenty of manure lmao (many of the people here have horses)
