Summer Garden

Our garden is in full bloom...and it's so awesome to eat healthy foods from your own backyard! We have been using the lettuce, some carrots, green onions, zucchini and spinach. I can't wait for all the tomatoes and green beans. If you live in Monterey County, we are so blessed with perfect gardening weather. Most everything we grew from seed and just look how beautiful it grows!





Our baby chickens are growing fast too. They are pretty much full of feathers and have ventured outside a little. We can't introduce them to the hen house until they are at least 3 months old as the big chickens may attack. Yikes! So they hang out in their cage in the laundry room until then...


Happy 1st day of Summer!

That's awesome! I would love to have a garden! You've inspired me. I may have to get some raised garden boxes for my patio. =)
