Garden Gansta

ME AND MEADOW'S GARDEN IS OFF TO A
GREAT START !!  A COUPLE WEEKS AGO WE
STARTED SOME SEEDS (WHICH HOPEFULLY WILL
POP UP SOON) AND WE SOILED UP A PLOT OF DIRT
IN HER BACKYARD SO WE ARE READY TO PLANT !!

(WHAT IS INORGANIC GARDEN SOIL MADE OF ??!)

HERE ARE OUR MANY LITTLE SEEDLINGS

ALL IN A ROW.  WE PLANTED MARIGOLDS , SUNFLOWERS ,

PEPPERS , MINI CUCUMBER , WATERMELON, AND I THINK

THAT WAS ALL WE DECIDED TO ATTEMPT FROM SEED.

SOIL GETTING MIXED IN TO OUR GARDEN PLOT.

ALL FINISHED!!

WE DECIDED THAT FOR NOW WE DIDN'T HAVE THE

TIME OR RESOURCES TO BUILD A RAISED GARDEN BED.

I KNEW THE LABELS HAD TO BE CUTE SO I WENT ONTO
PINTREST AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY FOUND THIS IDEA .
WE JUST SO HAPPEN TO HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF CORKS
IN THE CRAFT ROOM.  PERFECT!!!

THERE I AM- THE GARDEN GANGSTA .
BANDANA USED FOR SWEAT PURPOSES
BUT YOU CAN'T REFUTE IT'S STYLE !!

THE NEXT WEEK WE WENT TO THE FARMERS MARKET
AND BOUGHT THESE CUTIES FROM THE ARAVAIPA BOOTH.
MEADOW'S DAD TURNED US ONTO IT SINCE HE'S THE EXPERT.

WE CHOSE WENK'S YELLOW HOT AND PURPLE DE ARBOL
(BOTH HOT PEPPERS) & CALIFORNIA WONDER ORANGE
AND CUBANELLE (BOTH SWEET PEPPERS).

ALL HEIRLOOM WHICH IS MY NEW FAVORITE GARDENING TERM.

AND THEN JUST TODAY MEADOW LET ME KNOW THAT
HER DAD HAS DROPPED OFF SOME PRECIOUS TOMATO
PLANTS THAT ARE READY FOR US TO GET INTO THE GROUND.
(ALL HEIRLOOM AS WELL - THE BEST TOMATOES!!!)

I AM PRETTY SURE WE INHERITED SOME AMISH PASTE
TOMATOES , BLACK CHERRY TOMATOES , INDIAN MOON
TOMATOES , WHITE PEACH TOMATOES , TOMMY TOE
TOMATOES AND TOMATILLOS .

TONIGHT THE GARDEN BECOMES REAL !!!  MORE
GARDEN PICTURES ARE DEFINITELY IN THE FUTURE AS
THINGS GROW AND WE ADD MORE .

EXCITING STUFF!!!!!
