I need to come clean and share with you that the backyard farm isn't all success. So from time to time I'll let you in on some of our failures. Here's the first of several upcoming installments...
I mentioned (and have shared photographic proof of this fact) that I do keep it pretty tight in the ground portion of our garden. Everyone has their row, and the rows are arranged alphabetically, or by plant type (i.e., salad is all in one place; tomatoes are next to each other). I weed that area at least once a week (easy to do while the plants are small; much bigger job once they start to grow) and it's generally kind of nice looking.
