Good evening!
My sweetie spent today planting all of the vegetables into our new vegetable garden, and I am very happy to report that I have some new pictures to share with you!
I am soooo very impressed with what he was able to do in such a small space!
We now have growing:
- Spinach
- Green leaf lettuce
- Red leaf lettuce
- Green romaine lettuce
- Red romaine lettuce (I didn’t even know that existed!!)
- Butter crunch lettuce
- Red bell peppers
- Green bell peppers
- Cherry tomatoes
- Yellow grape tomatoes
- Broccoli
- Snap peas
All of these veggies will be a great and tasty foundations for some very healthy salads this Summer!! 😉
We also planted an herb garden in some large pots we had on hand! They now hold:
- 4 kinds of basil
- Thyme
- 2 kinds of oregano
- and 2 other herbs, that I am going blank on at the moment (sorry!!)
My sweetie also got us some strawberries for our hanging pots, and two blueberry bushes, which he is going to let grow in 2 different large pots. I am SOOOOO EXCITED to see what grows and how well we can incorporate these fresh goodies into our our new healthy life style!
This whole adventure has been so much fun! I haven’t actually gotten my hands dirty (thank you, Love, for doing all of the dirty-work, literally!). I will eventually get my hands in the dirt, weeding and tending to the veggies’ care, it is a garden after all, but Jason and I have had so much fun planning it out, and seeing it come to fruition. I realize it is just a small garden, right now, but it means something so much larger to my husband and myself. This little garden is a small glimpse of what we envision for our future; owning our own little farm. It still makes me smile ear-to-ear when I think of it even now!!
We are so blessed, and life is so good!
Here is to a FABULOUS evening!!
If you want to have a different life, you have to live differently!
OMH!!!! I’m so excited for you two!!! You two remind me Green Acres with Ava Gabor.
Ooh! I love that!!! 😉
