Mary, Mary, How does your Garden grow?




Last year we took a break from the vegetable garden, with Shai being so young I wanted as little on my to do list as possible. This year we have been very excited to be growing some food again. We expanded our herb garden adding lemon thyme, calendula, spearmint, and rosemary to our already present lemon balm, lavender, oregano, thyme, sorrel, and catnip. Our vegetable garden has three types of peppers, three types of lettuce, onions, rhubarb, broccoli, four types of tomatoes and some chard. I can't believe how amazing the lettuce is doing, we are enjoying it with every meal. This is our first time trying broccoli and the kids can't get over how cool it looks! The cherries we are picking tomorrow and we will take a vote on which sour cherry recipe will use...I will keep you posted. It is good to be gardening again.
