So far, I've been trying to document our consumption. Today, I'm turning an important corner in two ways. First, and most important in the long term, is that we are now houseless. The relocation company "bought" our house yesterday and will settle up by Saturday. This means that we get to move forward with buying a house. So, soon, I'll be able to turn my focus on finding some farmers in Bartholomew County to fill our provisions.
The other is less world-changing and more immediate. Waiting for my attention at our storage shed were two clay multipots. The smaller is embossed as herbs. The larger is a traditional strawberry jar. This morning, I took the boys grocery shopping and we picked up some potting mix and plants, strawberries, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Tomorrow, we'll plant our containers out on the patio. With any luck, we'll have some fruits before they are relocated to sunny Columbus.
The next stage after our container folly is establishing new pwrrenial beds at a new house. To that end, I share a photo of one spear of asparagus I got from our Fort Wayne Community Garden plot the week before we moved.
