Our first garden  

Posted by Misty


This year we planted our first garden. We started most the seeds inside but when we planted them outside they died from a big rain storm. We bought more plants and now the garden is growing well. We planted peas, carrots, beets, green onions, sweet onions, squash, zucchini, cucumber, okra, lettuce, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, watermelon, grapes, raspberries, strawberries, and cilantro. We planted some plants too close together, but altogether we did a good job. Next year we will learn from our mistakes and improve the garden. We are loving the Squash and zucchini right now. I have been making zucchini bread and Nate and Gavin can't get enough. Here are some before and after pictures.

Hmm... I want to come to dinner at your house!!! Those vegetables all sound so delicious. It must be nice to just go out back and pick any vegetable you want and have it fresh. Good job on your first garden!

Um, how about you send me some zucchini bread in the mail... :)

Your pictures and text are delightful. As usual you have packaged things in a bright and cheery manner. You've always had the flair for the artistic. I'm looking forward to Payson Lakes and catching up with you all.
