Gardening

We planted a raised garden bed in May 2011 and have been enjoying keeping up with it each year. You can read about the history of our garden here.

Last year we talked about adding another raised bed in our backyard, but that just didn't happen this year! We were kind of busy in March and April getting ready for Lucy! Perhaps we can do that next year. We did manage to get some potatoes and lettuce planted this year. It is so much fun to just walk out to the backyard and cut our own lettuce for dinner. The potatoes aren't quite ready yet (or at least I haven't really checked to see if they are ready) but we are looking forward to them.

We are very excited to have finally raspberries this year! We planted the raspberry plant in 2011 but didn't get any berries until this year. Ross has picked some and they taste pretty good. I kind of even like them and I'm not a raspberry fan at all.
