Veggieland
Our big gardening project this year began a month ago when Steven decided we should plant a vegetable garden. We got the wood at Home Depot and baby-love built an above-ground-garden-box. This past weekend we were finally able to buy dirt, pete moss and potting soil in order to give the veggies the best possible soil to grow in. We got all our dirt at the local Plant Shed, a family owned, garden-lover’s dream place. We transported 800 pounds of dirt in our trunk/back seat. Who needs an F-150? We planted Juliet and Cherry tomatoes, green and yellow peppers, one poblano pepper, cucumbers, green onions, and radishes. On four separate small gardens, Steven planted 4 watermelons as well. Right by the fence we also planted sunflowers and wild flowers. Here are the pictures.
Steven has a serious green thumb. It’s amazing! A few weeks ago half of our pansies were eaten by a hungry rabbit. Steven came up with a concoction made up of chilli powder. A week later the pansies were back in full color bigger than ever. Very impressive!
