Our first garden is in the works! Luke and Papa made another little garden in the back along the fence and got the cucumbers and some squash in, I still have to finish the squash. Plus I got some pumpkin seeds to throw in there along the edge. That might be fun for the kids. I got my green bean climbers constructed and the seeds planted, potatoes put in, radishes, a lettuce mix and spinach too. Tomato and pepper plants as well. And I stuck in 2 each broccoli and cauliflower plants for fun. I still need to finish the row of snap peas (Luke and I only got about a foot and a half before calling it quits, tedious work those peas are), carrots, beets, a few kinds of onions. We also did a few potted strawberry plants. It would be nice to have a whole small patch dedicated to them. Maybe next year we can find a spot. This will definitely be a trial and error gardening year since I've never used my green thumb before! I'll have to do a weekly growth update to use as reference for next summer.
First little bit of red...
When I was watering tonight, I found our first few little buds of cucumber poking through, that didn't take too long!
