Finally, I have some decent photos of my biochar garden outside. These were taken tonight after I was done with the garden work. If I'd taken them a few weeks earlier, you would've seen a lot of twiggy-looking dead things and dry grey dirt (or dead stuff sticking out of snow from freak snow storms we've had this spring)...but most of the trees, shrubs, and bushes are not dead! Just slow to come out of dormancy. Today I discovered my grape vines are starting to bloom, even though I half-thought them gone.

I hope to have more luxuriant white clover, vetch, and ground-cover growth later. Still working on this. My white clover is scattered all over. If you see any little fuzzy green stuff in the photos, that's clover & vetch. For a full list of what I'm growing in there, please see my blog post. I'm losing track of what kind of seeds I've chucked in there, but I'll recognize them when they come up.
