New Life is popping up all over my yard. We went with the Square Foot Gardener Method of vegetable gardening for ease of dealing with our rocky thick clay soil.
And we're having great results!! We've got Squash, Zucchini, carrots, peas, beans, tomatoes, chamomile, cucumbers, lettuce, etc going out there. In addition to our Strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries and herb garden.
My sister just passed on some asparagus as well so we'll have that in a few years too! Hooray!!
I love having a feast out my back door!
I also LOVE the book The Backyard Homestead because it finally inspired my precious husband and helped him realize that we really could grow food in our little "postage stamp" sized backyard, now he's having a ball gardening! However he's also now wanting to have a rabbit hutch of fluffy little adorable rabbits to have to slaughter and eat. yeah I'm all for being self-sustaining. But I have limits. I'm thinking rabbits are outside of the them!! (even if they are yummy to eat)
