Maxine and the Beans

Yesterday, we found Max sitting in a BIG hole she had dug right beside the bean seedlings. I guess she saw the fresh soil, no big plants and thought we had just extended her sand box! I was very upset at her. As you can see, a few remain and we will see what happens. I can still plant some replacements. Fortunately, Jimmy put up a trellis for the beans to grow.

The carrots also took a hit this week. The gardeners came on Tuesday and trimmed the out of control ivy on our fence. However, when the trimmings landed in the garden they raked them up, not realizing the little carrot seedlings were there! I do not yet know the damage but I will this afternoon when I go to plant the new arugula, swiss chard and butterleaf lettuce in the garden! Hopefully, Max doesn't dig those up.
