So Dh and I just got back from a lovely week at the beach to a HUGE mess in the garden. I guess I wasn't very clear on the gardening chores. She house sat in the winter and did a fine job, but apparently we neglected to tell her that the chickens don't free range in the summertime!
Needless to say, they had a grand time while we were gone! So the morning was spent clearing out what they had pecked over, and then picking the piles of veggies that clearly hadn't been picked in days. I don't think the girl was deliberately slacking off, but just has no understanding of the concept of gardening. Luckily, nothing's ruined, but it's going to take some work to get it all back in shape.
