Delicious!

We have been enjoying fresh lettuces and kale. Also, the first of the cherry tomatoes have been in and the kids gobble them up like candy! My basil and italian parsley is also doing well.

Yum. Yum.

Over and out.

Almost ready to plant!

Most of my plants have survived being raised by me. It is almost time to plant!
I planted Italian parsley, some fancy tomatoes, kale, red leaf lettuce, buttercrunch lettuce, Texas sweet onions, green onions, leeks, basil and rosemary. I will direct sow some carrots and cukes.

Here is my plum tree I received for Mother's Day. Yum! I can't wait for a great plums!!!

My garden bed. It took 42 cinder blocks (we had to go back for two more). They are heavy. Very heavy. I put weed blocker fabric down before the dirt went in.


The inside dimensions ended up being 2' 8" by 9' 10". We filled it with 2 yards of compost/soil.

My grow light is emminating it's rays of heat and "sun". Most of my veggies and herbs are seeded and some are sprouting!


I've priced-out cinder blocks and just need my Dad to find a time to get them with me.


Things are coming together!
