How Does Our Garden Grow?

What a difference a couple days of sunshine are making in our garden.  We are hoping for earlier crops this year.  We still have a few more veggies to plant.  Looking forward to next weekend.


This is how we started out this year's garden

In the front are carrots then beets & the beans are in the back.

This lettuce wintered over as did the garlic.  We are wondering how tough the leaves will be.  Notice the strawberries & rhubarb.  Might be making a pie next weekend - yum! 
 
                            
                 This is peas, garlic & onions in this bed.



Landscapers Wanted.....

This is how it looks so far.  We've only had to replant half of the bushes from where we first placed them.  So, look carefully, because the next time you see this part of our yard the bushes may have moved to new homes.........



The birds actually enjoy this birdfeeder on our old maple stump.  Looks like a saddle to us.


Fenced In !?!

Our government should be so proud of us as we went with a green fence.  This should cut our carbon footprint down.  Now we don't feel so guilty about all the time we spend in our car on the roads.
