The Garden Comes to Life 2013

We started our garden this week.  It is a bit later than usual due to the crazy weather but we decided that it was now or never!


Here is what we had to start with...weeds and overgrown onions!

This box was almost done when I took the picture...it no longer has the wooden slats in it so it was a bit easier to clean up.  Coulter was a big help...but he is a perfectionist and his area had to be completely free of weeds before he moved on...Bill and I not so much!


 Then we bought the plants and had a little help from our very own gardener extraordinaire...Merideth.


After a long two days we finally had what we hoped for...three boxes filled with a bounty of goodness for the summer...at least we hope so!





Our squash and watermelon box with one lone tomato that was left over...

This is the tomato box...at least 6 varieties including cherry and grape tomatoes!~

This is our raspberry patch that came up after last year being hacked down by the landscapers!
