The Aspiring Green Thumb

As a kid, I loved helping my dad in the garden and watching plants and veggies start from seeds into something so beautiful and delicious.  I always wanted a garden of my own, however since the lot we built our home on is just not big enough to have all the things I wanted, I had to compromise.  My husband found a large planter box called a Veggie Trug that we placed on the side of our home where we get the most sun.  The family goal is to grow things we will eat, so if you have kids, you know what type of conversation that was.  After several long, drawn-out family conversations we finally came to a consensus (it really wasn’t, but for sake of keeping this post short, let’s go with that) to plant onions, broccoli, spinach, lettuce, carrots and tomatos.  We planted the carrots, spiniach and lettuce from seed and the rest from plants.  We are so excited and looking forward to eating our crops soon!

This is our second season planting a garden and I’ve discovered you don’t need a lot of space to do it.  Grow things you will eat and enjoy and get to planting!
