It isn’t. It is only unfeasible if your plot is too big to double-dig in one day or one weekend. In that case, evaluate whether you can have some friends and their shovels over to help, or just double-dig the planting areas and skip the paths. Double-digging is good.

And, wonder of wonders, I finally caved and got a Twitter [...]]]> We posted on the day, but didn’t realize it was the blog’s first anniversary on March 10. Thanks, Garth, for kicking this off, otherwise we would have agonized over it forever.

Recently we also had our 100th post (if I counted correctly).

And, wonder of wonders, I finally caved and got a Twitter account for the farm. Only 7 updates so far, but Garth figured out how to do it, so beware of snark.
