The Garden

So my family and I want to plant a garden this year. Partly to be self-sufficient and partly because it tastes good.  And after waiting for the snow to stop, removing some grass in a flower bed by the back porch, and tilling the ground we were finally able to plant our garden. We planted tomatoes, carrots, beets, zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers, two types of lettuce, spinach, bell pepper, radish, peas, yellow wax beans, potatoes, and onions. I may have forgotten something, but I'm not sure. Oh by the way this is all in my grandmother's backyard. I have no land whatsoever to plant anything. Now there were a few other things that we did plant that didn't make it and we hope to try them again next year.  

Things are growing in nicely

Now you can't just have vegetables that's just no fun. So when we were out and about looking for seeds we found this cute little peach tree that I just had to buy. I was so super excited about it. I hope that they taste good. And we also transplanted some raspberries in a different place than in the picture above. We did have some blueberry and strawberry plants, but they died before they were even planted. The stupid snow kept us from planting and things still died. Anyway I hope things continue to do well.
