Garden


My latest obsession has been trying to plan out what to do with our yard. I've always wanted a fruit and vegetable garden. With the help of community ed and good friend and neighbors Tad and I constructed and planted our little garden. It has lots of tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, tomatillos, jalapenos, basil, cilantro, watermelon, and in the blank part cucumber seeds. Now, I've never grown anything before. We're about to see what color of thumb I have, and I'm really hoping it's a shade of green! Any tips, please share!!

Jess, look at your beautiful garden!! I love it! I am a little jealous at how professional and big it looks. :) I wish I had some tips for you, but, alas, Will is the only one with a green thumb, and even his is not super green. :)
