It's the beginning of August and it's time to plant another round of snap / bush / green beans and cucumbers. We show how we prepare our planting beds with compost and how we plant beans using our stand n plant transplanter. I also add a second planting of cucumbers. Thanks for watching, Dawn & Tom

My husband is a contractor, so you may see us doing things a little different and using some of our construction tools in the garden.

Our zone 6 vegetable garden is set up using the Elliot Coleman method of 30 inch wide beds with 18 inch wide walking paths. We've been vegetable gardening in this spot for over 30 years. The beds are 25 feet long and most have been in these locations for 15 years. We just rotate crops and amend the soil as needed. Thanks to books like The Winter Harvest Handbook and The Market Gardener. Plus, with the use of our hoop house and covering beds we garden as close to year round as we can. We rely heavily on tee posts, Hortonova FA trellis netting and we plant as much as we can in landscape weed fabric.

Some of the tools we use - Troybilt rototiller, Hoss wheel hoes, Stand N Plant transplanter, R & R cup cutter, EarthWay seeder, 4 Row Pin Point seeder and many homemade tools
