How Does Your Garden Grow?
|
This is a dual post by Gerald and Nancy~ I wanted to add a few pictures of our vegetable garden, it's kind of unique in that we live on very rocky land and don't have the equipment to dig up our lot...call the FBI for me Jacque! My wife and I have been trying to find a more economical way to have a garden since we couldn't afford to go buy all the wood we'd need to make raised beds, so here are pictures of what we used:  This is purple cabbage My wifes first tomato plants EVER!!! This was last week, now there are three of them. An accicental pumpkin plant from last fall, but we're happy to have it. Some lavendar for infusing and using for cuts, burns, and sleep aid This is a dusty millar plant with lavendar all around it.There are just a few of the pictures that I have...we'll have to post more as the veggies grow more. Yes, they're planted in tires that we found at the back of our farmland, many thanks to the previous owner for leaving all his junk tires! We positioned the tires all around the side of the deck and house and used organic hummus to plant all our veggies and flowers inside of them. When we decided to start a garden we looked at several stores for plants and seeds and found these. You won't believe the deal we got on them. We got almost 200 flowers and vegetable plants for $2.00 because they were going to be thrown in the garbage!!! We made a list the day after buying them but it must have gotten thrown away when I cleaned my desk off. It just amazes me what God does for our family~
