our lovely little garden

I really didn’t have much to do with our garden this year. Jimmy did 95% of the work watering and harvesting. We started out with 4 wee little tomato plants, zucchini & carrot seeds. The kids helped plant. Everything grew and grew. We had cool spring temps and lots of rain this summer. We ended up with 4 zucchini plants which, of course, produced oodles of zucchini. Tru loved the tomatoes and zucchini. He ate so many! Jimmy made salsa a few times out of the tomatoes. We also enjoyed Tomato-almond-pesto with noodles and zucchini.

I loved the carrots to snack on. The other day I harvested the last of the carrots with Max and Tru as helpers. It was a fun activity to pick, wash, and pop the green tops off the carrots. It really is fulfilling to plant a seed, watch it grow, water, harvest, and enjoy! We might only have a small little garden spot, but we were pleased with the results. Good work Fam!
