How Does Our Garden Grow - Part 1

We have planted a garden !
We moved an old raised bed into our yard, along with the dirt that was there. 
My neighbor and I tried to use this garden in its old spot but animals ate all of our plants... so here the garden is in our back yard, protected by fence and dog (except Parker likes to hunt lizards and has been in the garden) I'll keep you posted of our success or failure. 


Dirt! 

Grant working hard to rake the dirt smooth. 


The raised bed is full and the white on top is the soil additives that Micah then tilled into the dirt. 

It is hard to see in the picture but we have 4 tomato plants, 2 basil, 2 cilantro, 2 chive, 1 zucchini, 1 yellow squash, 1 red pepper, 1 yellow pepper, 2 pole beans and a row of flowers and a row of okra. In another pot we have a watermelon.

Stay tuned for more garden updates.
