Garden - Step 3

Build The Beds...

What a great hubby. He didn't even complain about making my garden beds (well maybe once). I can't wait to plant my garden, but at this point I don't have any green sprouting, so we'll see how it goes.

Garden - Step 2

Plant The Seeds...

This morning Cyndi called and said, "It's planting time." I'll be the first to say, I have no idea how to garden...but in years passed, I let the summer go 'cause I didn't know where to begin...so this year will be a TOTAL learning experience. Like, for example, I started these seeds today and just put one hole in each cup and placed the seeds in there- was I supposed to put a few holes in each cup, was I supposed to put just 2 seeds in the hole? When I get 5 plants growing in my small cup, I'll know that was wrong. Then there's a question of watering, oh where do I begin? Oh and one other thing...BUGS. How do I keep those nasty things away from my garden without chemicals? Speaking of keeping things away, how in the world will I keep our "sweet" bulldog out?

Get The Stuff...

Hardware...


Wood (for raised beds)...

Seeds...

The Haifleys & Pollards are FINALLY starting gardens. I have wanted to do this for 3 years now. It's so nice to be attempting this with a friend. We got the little cups to start the seeds inside and will transplant them outside once they are ready. Yes, those are organic seeds... Wish us luck and I'll be posting new pics as we go. By the way, Griff and Aidan are very excited about this new experience.
