garden spring 2008


This year (spring 2008) I decided to go "green"......heheh. When the kids bounce in the summer they like to bounce with water and all that water just goes to waste! I had made a trench to funnel it out of the yard last year. We had some really healthy grass growing in the trench this year which made me think the soil must be good. So I put the cinderblocks around the edge of the trampoline where the water always pools and used some of last years dirt and made a gartden! We have tomatoes, basil, oregano, cucumbers, cantalope, and zuchini! Hopefully the added shade will help them produce longer! This picture was taken at 4pm so the hottests part of the day the garden gets lots of shade!



We also have our sunny garden which is just peppers planted from seedlings and watermelons and cantalope from seeds. Then there are lots of sunflowers from seeds planted all around! Can't wait to see what grows!!!
