How does your garden grow?
We are trying our hand at a vegetable garden this year. It's been a work in progress and we've already learned a lot about what to do and not to do. Greg has been mostly in charge of it. We snagged these rocks from the building site across the street (and yes, we asked first, they were extras). We've also started a compost bin with all our veggie scraps that seems to be great for the garden and the yard. The tomato plants have lots of green tomatoes on them and we'll have ripe ones soon if Aaron stops picking the green ones off! We also have some herbs, jalapenos, green peppers, zuchinni, pumpkins, cucumbers and carrots. I've already enjoyed using the herbs from the garden and hope we have lots of fresh veggies soon! You can pretty much garden year round here, so we're looking forward to planting brussel sprouts (we love them Christy!), broccoli, lettuce and strawberries in the cooler months.

WOW! I never knew yo had a green thumb! Go Kate!!! My hubby would be thrilled if I did that!
Well, guess you can tell I'm a bit behind on blog reading!!
LOL over the sprouts comment...you are welcome to them. In fact, should we ever come across them again, we'll bag 'em up and send 'em your way!
SO cool that you can garden year round - have to get my head wrapped around that!!
