On Wednesday we began by clearing out kale and sweet potatoes, fluffing the soil with rich dark compost, and planting the Three Sisters: corn, beans, and squash.
We also transplanted Russian Red Kale seedlings into bigger pots.
We harvested the sweet potatoes, but also took several sweet potato vines and started them in pots that will hang out in the green house until planting in the fall.
In addition to harvesting and planting, we moved three underperforming citrus trees. One was in a spot that didn't get enough sun and two were competing with a lot of roots that stunted their growth. We finished the morning with a light lunch that included a kale salad and a soup made with the garden's beautiful swiss chard.
