Keeping Busy, Waiting to Build

The snow has taken forever to melt. We can’t start digging as soon as I had hoped. That’s ok though. I have a lot of other things I can do to keep busy. I’ll be building some small things like a rainwater system. I am planting tons of seeds and doing other projects with the kids. And, of course, getting the garden ready for planting.
I started by clearing the path to the new house site…
…and then started clearing for the house.
The kids and I tested some seeds for viability…
…and then planted a bunch of other seeds.
I prepared a bunch of garden beds…
…hauled a bunch of manure…
…put up some trellises…
…and built a bean/squash tunnel.
I made garden markers…
…And started my hugelabyrinth.
There are a million other projects I have going on right now, too much to mention. I guess it’s not so bad we can’t start building yet. When would I get all this work done?
