The Plot is approx 40 X 32 at one time 20 years or so ago we had a pretty nice garden there. With full time jobs, 4 kids and a barn full of animals it died a slow death. Then we just let it go with the occasional (once every couple of years) walk through with a weed whacker or we would clean out a small spot to grow pumpkins, gourds or just a small strip with tomatoes and peppers.
The Asparagus bed is what really got me going in the garden again. I realized about 3 years ago that if I didn't make an effort to clean up the Asparagus bed that I would lose it. That is where the reclamation began.
This space between the Asparagus and the peas growing on the fence wasn't passable when I first started. It was filled with all kinds of nasty weeds and raspberries.
