We're Growing!

Friday, May 22, 2009

Well, yes, in many senses... we have another baby on the way in July... Grace is growing like a weed... the baby chickens are starting to look like BIG birds... and the garden is looking better each day. We've had great weather here in SW MO! So, I'm going to post some pictures of our pit garden...
Pit one has sweet potatos, spaghetti squash (to come), cantaloupe, peppers (all kinds), and butterstick squash.
Pit two also has sweet potatos (the vines will arch over the two pits), okra, green beans, green onions, and zucchini.
Pit three has corn and tomatoes... an ABUNDANCE of tomatoes... romas, lemon boys, better boys, and many many cherry & grape tomatoes... those Grace eats like candy!
The greens pit has spinach (I hope I can make it do a little better this year than last...), lettuce, mesclun mix lettuces, basil, cilantro, and radishes.
And that's the garden... we'll be adding a watermelon & pumpkin pit outside the main garden as well. That little setup will be an experiment in itself!
