Family Farm - Finally unveiled!

With all our focus on the garden, it is surprising that we haven't posted any pictures yet. Well, thats about to change.


Brian engineered trellises for the green beans, tomatoes and cucumbers.
Pepper plants, started inside, babied to perfection... sort of. Lets see what kind of peppers they produce.
These would be newly sprouted cucumbers
Potato plants have made a happy little home here.

This is Brian's #1 favorite tomato plant.
Our corn is fun to watch grow. One day last week, one of the plants grew about 4 inches in one day!

These green beans have such cute heart shaped leaves




Our lettuce didn't grow too good in its rock hard bed, but a few lucky plants found a soft corner and went wild - lucky us. The salad was yummy.

The onions have been fun to watch pop out of the ground. I hope I didn't plant them to shallow.
Well, thats it for our online garden tour for now. More pictures to come of lush, green, wildly producing plants... We hope.

Wow Jill, what a great garden! Looks like you will have lots of yummy things to eat! Fresh garden veggies and fruit always taste way better than anything from the store or a can!
