The garden is growing quite lovely this year. We love love love our raised beds, they are great! Ashley has done most of the work this year, we have helped with weeding and watering, but she planted almost all of it and has been harvesting some of it already. She is amazing! I am happy to have her around!
(she burned her hand on the exhaust pipe off of a little motor when she was working with Ryan. It is pretty bad on her thumb and ring finger, big blisters. She only nursed it the first day and is back to normal activity minus piano. She should be back to it here soon.)
We are finally getting just a few strawberries which everyone is willing to help find, funny how that works!
Some have to be picked just barely pink, because they are just too yummy!
Little brother doesn’t like to crawl around in the garden because of the pokey bark so he gets up in the beds and sits, it is much nicer. He is in the “cabbage patch” which really is yummy spinach for my green drinks, YUM-O!
Emma with the bell peppers and tomatoes, just a few tiny ones coming on.
Ashley and I have worked and worked on cleaning up the weeds around the garden. We are determined to get it planted in grass this summer and hopefully a few trees for our “secret garden.” We will see how we do. all the weeds are dead, just not removed yet, the hard part… One really bad part about living on a big ol farm is all of that yard to keep up. One of the best parts about living on the big ol farm is having that big yard! We continue to work on!

I need Ashley! I need a chicken farmer and gardener and babysitter and chef. How'd you get so lucky?
