My little friends and I have really been having fun playing in the dirt this week. ON Sunday, Shaun and I drove down with the tiller in tow and tilled up our garden spot at the day care. On Monday I broke out my dc hoe and rake and also little kiddie garden gloves and hand tools donated by my loving Mother. The kids were all about the gloves and tools and dug and played. We have been out there every day this week. We finally planted our seeds on Wednesday.
This year we are growing corn, watermelon, squash, zucchini, green beans and tomatoes. The green beans in the dc garden are new this year. We frequently have green beans with our lunches so I thought it would be neat for them to watch them grow.
Now we will water a little and wait for the plants to come up. Then we will begin our weeding. I also used the side of our storage barn to hang our tools where they are protected by the roof overhang from the rain and sun. Makes garden life a lot easier not having to tote all those accessories!
