Green Acres

One of the best things about living in the "country" is that we can have what I consider a large garden. Nana and Pa brought their tiller to our house and Pa tilled up our first section. Today we planted yellow and white onions. In the future we are hoping to grow tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, and who know what else. This is our first garden, so feel free to post or email me any advice or suggestions.

Grace was a wonderful helper who enjoyed playing in the dirt as much as planting.

As you can see we still have no real grass. In a few weeks we will fence part of the back yard, lay sod, and begin landscaping. Come on SPRING!!

Wow! A garden?? That is SO cool! I'm sure Mitz can give you some good advice on gardening.

I want to come see your new house and eat a homeGROWN meal! I guess I should wait until you plant more than onions. ;)

Loved the pics. I miss you.
