the garden

it is almost that time of year...again.

we have a garden...as do most in our town.

i asked garrett if he would help me plant a garden and he agreed.

little did i know his idea of a garden was like having another farm!

it takes a full-time team to keep the "garden" under control.

when the plants start producing you need to be prepared to receive tons...literally...of fresh produce.

this is when home bottling skills come in handy

or

an extra large deep freeze.

there is a small window of opportunity to distribute, can, or gift the veggies before they go bad

so

you have to act fast!

i am extending an open invitation to those interested in bottling to come and join me any or every summer.

 this is the area of our yard that we have dedicated to the garden. as you can see, it is bigger than the lot our house sits on. that's what you get with a farmer for a husband.
