For the past few years Dave and I have been trying to support local and organic farming efforts. It only makes sense to start the movement at home. I am so proud of our little high desert garden!!! We are by no means good gardeners, but are learning much as we plod along.
We have a smaller garden with green chilies, jalapenos, bell peppers and tomatoes in our front yard.... partly destroyed by a nosy dog that keeps jumping the fence.... and a larger garden (pictured below) in our back yard with lettuce, spinach, broccoli, rainbow chard, watermelon, carrots, cantaloupe, cucumbers, yellow squash, zucchini, green beans and sunflowers!!
Not too much is more satisfying than harvesting your own garden!

your garden rocks!!! I've already been able to enjoy some spinach and zucchini from it, and can't wait to try some of the melons and carrots! Way to become your own local farmer! We're on our way to that...our garden is looking decent, but it's a little behind, we're really having to fight weeds, and I'm afraid of frost coming sooner here than the garden will be ready for! (maybe i'll make it to that workshop tomorrow on cold frame greenhouses...) see you tonight!
Your garden looks AWESOME Julie! I hope you guys are well!!
Jules! The garden looks fantastic, you really know how to look like a professional gardener! I'm jealous, I was such a slacker this year! Can I just live vicariously through you?
