Home School Gardening

On your Mark...Get Set...Plant!


Well the garden beds we built last year are getting this Years Spring crops in.

 Each of us has chosen something different.  Alex and I want to learn all we can about each vegetable so we decided to pick one climber and one non-climber.  So we can get to know each vegetable intimately and know its likes and dislikes as well as planting and harvesting time.


 Trinity on the other hand likes her flowers, so she opted for a cut flower garden with as many different flower seeds she could get.  So last falls seed collecting really helped her out.

As Alex and I were preparing our soil in early spring...one thing led to another and a bet was placed as who would have the most lush garden.  The winner doesn't have to do any fall clean-up in the garden...and it seems a lunch at our favorite diner got in the bet somehow.
Well, may the best gardener win.
