Our Garden

After finishing the garden retaining wall too late last year, we finally have a garden this year. Rob has been planting every weekend for over a month and it's really starting to take off.
We have over a dozen tomato plants of different varieties.
I definitely will be doing some canning, salsa and spaghetti sauce later this summer. Send me any great recipes you have. I've never canned by myself before.

Here are the green beans and peas.

Some cucumbers popping up.


Strawberry plants.

We're also growing red onions, green peppers, herbs, summer squash, zucchini, watermelon, cantaloupe, corn and pumpkins.

This is one of three things I feel sad about living in the city. No room for a garden.

Your garden looks awesome! We have quite a few starts in the house, just waiting for the Utah weather to cooperate!
