Hilling the Vegetable Garden

I didn't even know "hilling" was a thing until this year. 

Apparently it is. And it's important! 

Here's a glimpse at how well our onions and potatoes are growing (pre-hilling).

And here's mom and I doing the dirty work. Literally.

And here are the onions and potatoes all hilled up! Ready to grow some more!

Apparently this keeps them in the soil when they like to grow upwards. Prevents the potatoe tops from turning that greenish colour.

The dogs were enjoying their freedom on the acreage again :)

That's not all that's growing! Look at the progress on our lovely plants in the greenhouse! They're getting to big now! We're gonne have to transplant them to the garden soon!
