Very nice! You have a very nice garden and amazing view. I look forward to your pics

It looks magnificent, but technically, when I think of garden I think of maybe 1/4th that size. Isn't that considered raising crops or farming? Whatever the technical term is, it looks truly dynamic. How much help do you have maintaining this?

[Ozark Lady]

Wow, nice garden and view.
I think it looks like an estate!
How do you have time to do anything with such a large garden to keep up?

NO deer problems? You will be eatting well with that much of a garden. I bet you have a tractor.

Fabulous as always, Jal!

Have you thought about drip irrigation? I would think in your dry climate, throwing water through the air like that would lose a lot to evaporation.

That's it! I quit!! How can I keep up???

Just Beautiful, jal_ut.

Wow that is "NICE"! You must have a tractor to take care of that much land. I would love to have a garden spot that size. I love big sky country the view is great.

The sky is so big! No wonder your vegs reach up so high and so wide
The night sky must be spectacular, too.

Call it a farm if you like. To me its just a garden. Where I grew up a farm was acres of hay or grain. A garden was where you grew some corn, peas, squash and potatoes.

My lot is 1.5 acres. I have another place with 90 acres, mostly mountainous.
My veggie garden is 7500 sq ft. Then there is an orchard and perrinial beds of strawberries, asparagus and raspberries. I spend from none to 3 hours a day in the garden.

No deer problems. The mountai lion got the deer.

Drip irrigation is out of the question. The sprinkler system works very well and is the standard way to irrigate all over the West.

Yes, I do have a tractor.
