Garden Time

Watch out hydroponic Bob! Jessica and I decided to grow a real live garden this year.... the kind that uses 100% genuine sunlight and dirt.

A small 8x15' space at the side of the house was the perfect spot (except for my small oversight that it only get a couple hours of full sun per day---oops!)
We were fortunate enough to have Aeva's advice expert farming techniques. We ended up planting several varieties of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, squash, and even several blackberry bushes that came from a berry farm in South Carolina.
Of course we had to throw in a few herbs like cilantro and basil, for good measure.

I think this will be a fun project. Hopefully one that will bear fruit, literally.

Either way, Aeva has been enjoying helping with the daily watering, weeding, and sampling the soil quality of our little farm.
