Garden Goals & Goals for the Week

I like the idea of documenting my goals for the week like the prudent homemaker does on her blog.  I think it keeps me more accountable and helps me organize my time and be able to look back and remember what I did at certain times of the year or what was accomplished.  (Wow!  That was quite the run-on sentence!)  So here are my goals for this week:

Garden:

• Plant Armenian cucumbers, bunching onions in the blackberry bed and lima beans, pole beans, and jade bush beans in far sunny bed.  Also plant nasturtiums around tomatoes and a few sunflowers in front flower bed and butterfly garden.
• Weed around plum tree.
• Weed butterfly garden and far sunny garden.
• Add border to blackberry garden.
• Fertilize tomatoes, strawberries, plum tree, front flower bed, and peppers.  Fertilize pomegranate with whey from homemade yogurt.
• Spray peppers for slugs and set out snail trap.
• Deadhead blanket flower and keep for seeds.
• Trim rosemary, bulbs and tidy up butterfly garden.
• Take pictures!
