July- Look at our Garden Grow





This is the first year we have planted a garden (with vegetables). Brad has taken the role of garden monitor, monitoring watering and picking the ripe veggies. Mary has taken the role of monitoring weeding- not always doing a very great job, and preparing meals with the fresh produce. We planted zuchinni- though Brad did not want to so we just planted 1 because Dad said it probably would die. Ha- it is producing like mad! We planted tomatoes, peppers, cucumber basil, and spaghetti squash. The peppers and cucumber have been taken over by the spaghetti squash- as well as part of the patio, it just keeps growing. The best thing we have made from our garden is...PESTO from our fresh basil. This has been a good learning experience for us, cheers to gardens for years to come.
