I am really excited, I picked up seeds for; Green onions, Carrots, Lettuce, Green and Yellow beans, Sunflower Seeds and I also picked up some Pumkin Seeds! We are also going to plant Potatoes this year but we will do that with potatoes we have at home, I want to pick up a tomato plant too. This list is actually ongoing as I want to pick up a couple of blueberry bushes along with a blackberry bush and some strawberries to plant even though it might take a year or two to actually get any fruit, I think anyhow.
I might also pick up a herb starter kit for inside the house and keep it outside on the front verandah once the weather is warmer....I will have to study up on that as well!:)
I am soooooooo excited as it has been awhile since I have planted a veggie garden, I have $ signs in my eyes with just thinking of the money we will save.....I can't wait for soccer season too, nothing like having a picnic with homemade bread , your own grown lettuce ,Potato salad with your own potatoes etc......Oh yes! I will pick up some merrigolds to plant in the garden to help keep the ants/bugs away.....I have heard this works and notice the Oldtimer down the street from us does this every year as well.
Our garden is about 15'x 25' so I might be adding a few more things to it like cucumbers. The sunflowers I line around the garden between ours and our nighbours fence and on the front end of the garden towards our driveway.
Happy Monday Everyone |
