Our Garden

Spring time is finally here and it couldn't have come at a better time! I loved the snow this year, but I was ready for some green grass and sunshine. It finally got warm enough to plant our garden & we kinda got carried away! We still don't have the strawberries in yet, but we're getting the plants this Saturday from the farmers market. Then it will be complete. So far we've got three different tomato plants, cantaloupe, watermelon, squash, zuccinni, cucumbers, a mix of bell peppers, snap peas and lettuce! I'm so excited to eat home grown fruits and vegetables. It was actually a lot of fun getting the garden ready. It's crazy to me how dark the soil is here compared to red TN dirt. Some things we started from seeds a few months ago like the peppers and others we bought. Now let's hope we can keep our little digger, Raleigh out of the garden! We also bought a reel mower to take another step towards going green. We can't do it all at once, but we're trying to make a few changes here and there each month.
