It has been 1 year since we moved into our new home. Last year, it was too late to plant a vegetable garden. This year, we managed to plant one. We weren't sure how it would do but so far, it looks good. We only planted 5 different veggies; pink tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, onions and cucumbers. We didn't want to go too crazy and then find out we picked a bad spot lol. We didn't. The garden is going crazy!! We had bugs eating the leaves, so I have sprayed a little eco friendly insecticide. Now they are looking great. We planted a little late which means that the fruits of our labour will be ready a little later. But that's OK - it's going to taste great!! Also, we have garlic. The people who had gardens before us must have planted them and they just keep coming back. The only problem is that they are in the middle of the grass! We are going to try and transplant them this year, otherwise, we will just plant new ones.
It's amazing to me how relaxing working in the garden is. Ok, well I just sit and watch as my DH works in the garden. It's difficult for me to stay bent over for long periods of time, so he gets to weed.
Maybe once we have weeded the entire garden, I will be able to post a pic!!
