Our Garden Journey

If you have stumbled upon our humble blog please be advised. We are not expert gardeners nor would we ever claim to be. We are novices, newbies, wannabes. Call us what you will, but we are just some folks trying to find a better way to feed ourselves that honors the origin of that food and really enjoying the discoveries we find along the way. This is our garden journey.

-sewed salad greens, spinach, and swiss chard seeds
-pruned tomato plants
-sprayed strawberries with safe soap for white fly problem (still there, but dwindling)
