Its been almost two months since we planted in the backyard, so I thought I would show you some before and after pictures so you could see how our garden is thriving!
Here is box #1 two months ago:
In it we have 3 varieties of carrots (baby, purple, and rainbow) 1 pickling cucumber, two yellow cucumber, one "regular" cucumber, green onions, walla walla onions, and one "regular" tomato plant. Here is how it looked last night.
Here is box #2 two months ago:
In it we have 4 cherry tomato plants, 6 lettuce and in the above picture, 5 spinach. Unfortunately, we are sucky spinach pluckers, and our spinach got totally out of control. I hacked it all back, and all but 2 have died, and those 2 aren't looking that great either. So now there are only two spinach, and one lettuce died but we replaced that with a strawberry plant that Killian got for free from school. We got it way to late for it to actually do anything, but it looks nice ;)
(yes, we are also sucky lettuce pickers. Those 3 in front are so big, you cant even see the ones in the back row!)
Lastly, here are our sugar snap peas 2 months ago:
And then now!
I love seeing everything growing and producing! I cant wait to see what our garden at my work does!!
