Day 2: A Little Concerned



It is only the second day of our Mayne Garden adventure and Mother Nature is already giving us a little scare. Early this morning we received a text alert from seacoastonline.com warning us of the possibility of flooding in York County. The warning is the result of severe thunderstorms in the area. Hopefully, these will bypass Wells. Right from the beginning we knew flooding could be a threat to our riverside garden, but we certainly didn't expect it so earlier in the process. Unfortunately, even though we constructed our planting beds twenty inches high, the newly planted vegetables have shallow root systems  and could be easily toppled by heavy rain...but we feel confident things will be OK.

  1. Great job on the blog you two.
    Yes, let's keep our fingers crossed we don't get the weather they are predicting.
