Jennifer,

I'm so impressed by your harvests. Would you mind showing us a picture of the whole vegetable garden? How big is it? How long have you guys been gardening?

Jennifer said...

Shayna, great idea: I'll do that for an upcoming post. The garden is almost exclusively Tomory's domain(I work too much). When we bought the house, it had planter beds planted with various veggies by the previous owners. Since then we of course have rotated crops, planted new things. So since 2007 Tomory has been gardening, self-taught. I used to help my mom garden back in Iowa, and occasionally help out Tomory (help= eating the final results ;)

Happy Earth Day! Please teach me how to grow vegetables!! Baby spiders are so cute! If I see bigger ones, I will scream!
