The carpet is there to keep weeds down for now on the pathway. Once the pathway is laid out, the carpet will be laid down and covered with mulch. I'm going to be calling tree trimmers this week to see about getting some free mulch. I could really use a whole truckload for this and other projects.
Next, I will be planting the right side of the bed. I've discovered that the front of it gets a lot of afternoon sun, so I'll be putting some veggies in there for now to keep it going until I can figure it all out in the spring.

You're doing good. I know you can't wait until its done but you're doing good.
Thanks, Patrice! I love reading over at your place. It gives me hope.
I have added you to my blog list. I will enjoy catching up on your past posts. How very cool to have a tropical garden!! I remember my granddad sitting in his back yard in Miami surrounded by tangelo and banana trees, with a squirrel sitting in his lap eathing peanuts out of his shirt pocket. I love Florida. Lost of memories. I hope you enjoy your place. Sounds like you will put every inch to work. Are you in an area where you can have chickens? (you may have addressed this in past posts but I haven't gotten caught up yet)
Thanks for visiting! I'll add you to my blog list as well. No, I can't have livestock, but I'll work around that. I can have rabbits, but I would never be able to kill or eat them!
hi deborah,
i might be of help in that eating rabit part(lol),
so feel free to ask me.
I can't wait to hear about your successes with veggie planting. It is nice to know there are others here in FL trying to do like the Devraes family out in CA.
