We think we may see Jack (of the Beanstalk) anyday now. This morning, we switched cages on the garden beds to accomodate the height of the bean plants. We should begin to have a harvest in another three weeks or so but it's exciting to watch their progress. Speaking of harvest, yesterday we picked our first lettuce and it made a very tasty salad. It's wonderful to know where our salad greens come from, knowing that no chemicals or harmful agents were used in their production. I plan to cut more lettuce tonight before dinner. I can't believe we're actually growing vegetables successfully. It is a testament to square foot gardening, the soil mix, and the concentrated watering. We recommend it highly.
This blog is about the everyday lives of two women. It is about nature, art, woodworking, gardening, and simple thoughts and simple pleasures. Every now and then Cocoa, the Smooth Fox Terrier writes the blog post.
