Yesterday I planted a blackberry bush as well as a blueberry bush.  I read the blueberry bush package and realized that I need to get another blueberry bush in order for the first blueberry bush to pollinate.  I also planted some perennial vegtables.  Rhubarb and asparagus.  Today I should get in the onions. 

Last year I planted cucumbers and they did great.  I am going to do that again this year.  I ended up giving half of them away.  Every year I plant tomatoes.  Well since I can remember.

A few weeks ago I planted two types of raspberries and two types of grapes at my summer house down the cape in Hyannis.

I am only 27 years old and I feel like this world needs to go back to the way it used to be a hundred years ago.  No more chemical fertilizers.  Thus I started a vermicompost bin.  What prompted this?  Reading the book "The natural cures they dont want to tell you about".  I think it is a must read for any american that wants to feel better.  I know I don't feel ship shape.  I have also began eating mostly organic.  I crave organic bananas.  It is like eating candy.  Only it is better for me.
