Strawberry Patch!

Our landlord asked us, "Are you going to plant anything in the garden?" I told him, "Maybe strawberries." A couple weeks later, he got us 12 strawberry plants! WOO HOO! STRAWBERRIES!!
Now all be have to do is plant it. (mom and I talking to each other) One week: lets go plant it! Week two: it's nice outside maybe we should go plant the strawberries. Week: You know we should really go plant the strawberries! About 2 months we FINALLY planted the strawberries (mom and dad, I was taking the pictures). So here's all the steps we did to plant the strawberries:


Take all the weeds out, make the dirt really nice looking. Put some black stuff, I think it's mesh or some kind of cloth to keep the weeds from coming up and tangling the strawberry plants. Lay it all out, cover it up mesh with wood chips and dirt.Decide where the strawberries go, make holes in the mesh and dirt to put the strawberries in, And there you have it........a strawberry patch!
