Raised Bed Harvest Begins!

Last night we harvested our very first lettuce from the raised beds and had it for dinner! Ron has built a total of 4 raised beds thus far already. So far the potatoes, onions, lettuce, onions, carrots and kale are planted in the beds. We have tomatoes and broccoli ready to go and will plant them as soon as Ron finishes up the 5th raised bed. We have plans for about 4 more raised beds for squash and other veggies. All the hard work is starting to pay off!!

Peas are planted with the string all tied up and ready to go.

Things I'm Loving Now...

Justin watering the sunflowers he planted with his new and very well loved watering can.


Our baby veggies are peeking through the dirt finally! This box is holding brocolli, spinach, kale, cabbage, cilantro, basil, and sunflowers. I can't wait until these are ready to eat!
