Our Garden is Growing
We finally finished our garden on Wednesday. We had the soil delivered that afternoon. We got really good soil. It is organic. Jacob shoveled it into a wheelbarrow and dumped it in the box. I leveled the soil with a rake. Jaron and Jenna helped, too. Then, we went up to town to buy our plants. We planted 6 tomato plants, 2 beef steak, 2 Roma, and 2 grape. We also planted 3 strawberry plants, 12 cilantro plants, 2 jalapeno peppers, 1 green bell pepper, 1 red bell pepper, zucchini, cucumbers, onions, and carrots. We also put a fence up around it so the animals can't get to the plants. I can not wait until we get that first tomato. I love home grown tomatoes. It is so fun to water everything in the evenings. I am so excited we finally have a garden.

Looks great! A gofer ate all the lettuce Dennis planted last weekend...otherwise, we'd be enjoying salad in a few weeks. Our weather is beautiful this weekend, so we might try planting again. :)
