SLEEPING GARDEN


It's a good thing I turned off the water a few weeks ago.  Everything would be frozen and the water system cracked and broken if I hadn't.  The beds that are covered in burlap have a 6 inch layer of crushed leaves on them.  The leaves will compost over the winter and the burlap keeps the leaves from blowing away.  It also helps keep the weeds from sprouting.  These beds will be prime for early planting next spring.
