Planting the Garden

We planted the garden on May 13th.  It's taken me until now to post these pictures...life got busy.  We planted six tomatoes in two straw bales, carrots, green onions, lettuce, 6 green peppers, 1 zucchini (almost killed that), and 6 bush beans (I prefer pole beans, but this is what they had at the market).

Lil planting the zucchini that she grew in her classroom this year.

Nia planting the carrots, green onions and lettuce. The seeds were glued onto the paper towels with water and flour mixture.

Putting dirt on top of the straw bales. Hoyt in the background keeping the baby happy.

Tomato plant planted!


Two little girls helping.  It was cold that evening.  In fact it froze that night.  Bad planning on my part!

Nia planting bean plants.  She was great, she jumped right in.

All six tomato plants.

Done with the planting.

Time to jump on the trampoline!

Garden watered....now GROW!
