Our Garden

We have been working really hard on getting our garden planted this week. One of the things that we really wanted when we were looking for a new home was a garden. We loved the size of the garden in this home. We've had our eye on it since we moved in trying to figure out where we wanted to plant stuff and what we wanted to plant. We did a lot of research and a lot of planning and put the last seeds in the ground last night. Here is the before picture of our garden plot.
The first thing that needed to be done was to put a fence up to keep Casey and the girls out of the garden area.

Then we spent a couple of days working manure into the soil. Then we put stakes in the ground to mark off the pathways and the planting areas. And last, we started putting the seeds and little plants in the ground. Here is the result.

We decided to plant corn, cantelope, zuccini, summer squash, green beans, onions, cucumbers, carrots, tomatos, cilantro, green peppers, and banana peppers. Now we just hope that it grows and that we get to enjoy all of the delicious vegetables. We also hope that the pear tree and berry bushes already in the ground produce some yummy food too. We shall see.
