2011 Garden Update

Off work today.  Spending time with fam and soaking up some sun.  Busy weekend finishing up VBS @ church.

 I guess we figure go big or go home, because with our first garden attempt, we went big!  Well, I think so at least.  Nathan didn't want me to take pictures of the garden because there are lots of weeds :)  However, I still think he's done a great job growing some produce for us to enjoy.   
 Our pear tree is also starting to produce.  It isn't ready but at least they resemble pears now! Before you know it, we'll have a cow and pig fenced in trying to grow our own meat too!  Now that Nathan would love to do! :)  Oh help me!

I am impressed!!! We always go to walmart and buy black plastic in the painters section, we made a drip system for our garden (go to any sprinkler store it will cost about 100 bucks and you can use it every year. then we put the tarp over the plants when they have grown a bit and the heat helps them grow and you NEVER have to weed!!! The drip system also makes watering really easy! Once someone told me about that I am hooked!!

Wow, what an amazing garden!! I wish I had space for a garden. Can't wait to own my own home so I can have fresh fruit and veggies!
