Our Little Garden!!






On Saturday we planted a GARDEN!!!  We never go in our back yard.  Why? Because we live on a mountain, and we have a cliff off our back!  Seriously! Plus it is tiny.  Since we have moved in I have wanted to plant a garden, and our back yard is really good for nothing else.  I saw on Pinterest to use cinder blocks instead of wood. This way you can use the little holes on the outside for little plants!  I asked Ben's aunt Liz to come help me....she is an expert gardener. Her backyard is AmaZING!!  She was so nice to come to our house all afternoon to help.  She even went to the store with me to pick out plants and get dirt!

The girls had so much fun helping.  Dani sat on the edge of the box and poked at the dirt for at least an hour!  We still need to get a few more plants.  The veggies don't go in until after mother's day.  But our big box has all of our berries.....strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and boysenberries. In our veggie box, the broccoli, lettuce and green onions are already in.  But the tomatoes, peppers and squash have to wait.

I am sooo excited for things to start producing!
