1, Making the outer frame 

( Mar 19, 2011 )

Set up the garden frame.

We made a first garden. It looks like a coffin when he lies down in it. 

It also looks like a covered wagon. :) These white poles are used for making a greenhouse and blocking a lot of rains. 

We will make more!

  We have finished to make 2 of long and short coffins... I mean gardens.

2, Burying  legged stool in the ground.

Most difficult thing is making straight the wood frame for the ground.

My husband checked the plant's health.

 According to the gardening book, we need to pick up the vegetable when plants began to grow up even small for keeping the growing power.

We harvest cucumber and egg plants. The total amount vegetable is cucumber is 6kg, egg plants are     2.6kg, lettuce is many that we can eat every day a month.
