After turning the garden spot twice and taking out approximately 1000 lbs of clay, this is the result. The soil is in much better condition than last year. There were dozens of grubs last year and only a few earth worms. This year it is the opposite. The chickens had a field day on all the worms and I only found 3 grubs. After the chickens had their fill, I planted six different kinds of potatoes, sugar snap peas, purple pole beans, tomatoes, beets and carrots. After the potatoes are harvested, I will plant the rest of the garden.
