My Garden

I started a garden!!! And yes I know I look totally stupid with the big hat on but I did decide to plant this afternoon in 96 degree weather. I am totally excited about what I will be growing, and if all goes well, I am excited about what we will be eating. This garden was fun to plan, build, and plant, although there were times it was a little emotional because it reminded me of my dad. He had a green thumb and his gardens were amazing.


I made three boxes, two 4x4 and one 2x2. The 2x2 was made just for herbs and the 4x4's have a little bit of everything.

This garden has watermelon, I started from seed so you can't see it yet, roma tomato, jalapeno, hierloom tomato, red onion, chives, marigolds, sunflowers, yellow squash, rosemary, bush style green beans, & gerber daises. The other garden has cucumber, cantaloupe, beef steak tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, marigolds, pole green beans, sunflowers, & gerber daises. And the herb garden has basil, cilantro, parsley, and thyme.
