Community Garden

Our garden is growing and we are spending more and more time out back. Jeremy has turned into a real gardener and Lucy especially loves to help. Samuel loves to play in the mud and whack the weeds. We also have had several neighborhood kids who have helped in the garden - here are a few of them helping us last week.

When all of the kids are over we don't have enough watering cans BUT we always have plenty of containers in our recycling bin....Samuel loves to create something.

Jayden - watering the okra.
Dasia and Jordyn getting water out of the rain barrel. They were amazed that we catch rain water!
Keirsten double watering the watermelons and canteloupe
Our ever watchful scarecrow.

Lucy has really enjoyed growing her flowers in the front. She got seeds for her birthday and has LOVED watering them and watching them grow. We also have a few strawberries growing and have gotten to eat 3! Can't wait to actually see some flowers bloom.
