    Sarah, I put straw mulch around my plants in the greenhouse and so far no weeds. I put grass clippings (lord knows we have an abundance of them this year) around everything in my small garden (30' x 40') and so far all is weedless there too. My daughter in laws sister swears by grass clippings...

    Good morning. I don't have anything chicken related going on right now, but we do have veggies growing.....I hope. Yesterday I was finally able to get the last of my sweet corn planted, about 1/2 acre. I bought this 2 row planter for my old John Deere and I'm not sure I got the depth...

    Quote: Ignore the above post, as luck would have it the little sponsor banners above showed Mt. Healthy. I had not called them and they will be shipping them to me on the 10th. Crisis avoided. .....but I knew one of you would have eventually gotten me a answer.
