So, it's now day 60 something for our garden of veggie wonders. You have to wonder how it survived the dog attack, Jake's watering techniques and the awesome late May snowstorm. But most of it did. My only previous veggie garden experience was 15 to 20 years ago when my dad planted one in the backyard. That garden kicked butt now that I think about it. We had big old crazy pumpkins and more peppers than one family needed. I also learned to love those little round, flower shaped squash. Patty Pan? Is that a squash? Anyway, lots of fun but Dad did most of the work. So our garden this year has been trial and error.
Check out this first shot of where the corn and carrot seeds ended up in the "oh my gosh did Bandit just dig up those seeds?" bed. There is also an intentional sunflower at the rear. At least they are growing in spots.
This is the front bed. It's much happier to be alive. Happy little tomato, pumpkin, pepper and cilantro plants..........
The only thing Hayden is interested in about this garden is the corn. So far so good. Not a lot of corn, but some. I hope it works.
And here is the lettuce. Ah the lettuce. Other than cilantro, it's the one thing we've eaten out of the garden this year. It was fun going out and getting a salad from my yard. I can't wait to see if everything else works out. I really want some of those carrots.
