It’s been a while since I’ve blogged about our gardening. Thought I’d give a quick update.
First, we all had salad for lunch today. The salad is up enough now to eat and the radishes are doing great. Here’s an example of our nice, fresh salad. Plus, our burgers came from a cow right down the road.
We planted beans Friday afternoon (04/16/10) and potatoes the week before. Those are the only things we currently have in our fields. Everything else is up here with us. Having the terraces and beds so close to the house makes everything very easy to take care of and keep an eye on.
We are giving the potato box another go this year. Vertical potatoes make a lot of sense so we are going to try and get the system down.

Hey John hows it going?, good to see ya still pluggin along in the garden. Hows your bees doing?, lost all 3 of my hives this past winter from wet and cold. Hope to catch some swarms soon in june. Hey I did the potatoe box and it work well . God bless You and Family, may your year be prosperous.
Nothing better than a fresh greens from the garden for a salad.
My strawberries are getting a nice size and color already. I would love to see some more pictures and updates as the growing season continues. Seeing other gardens and the fruits of their labor give me motivation to go out and work in my garden.
Good Luck!
