Between the noxious weeds and grazing critters, it was more trouble than it was worth. However, I try to help my brother-in-law with his garden and I reap some of his harvest.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519986092114737286.post-76302313998442574592013-06-20T17:10:59.926-07:002013-06-20T17:10:59.926-07:00How beautiful!

My oldest planted a truly tiny garden this year and it is so random. Corn, radishes, watermelon, and some beans. Whether or not any of it will thrive is anyone's guess, but he is such a natural gardener and tends to it well.

My father-in-law keeps asking how our garden is doing, but most of the time I don't know - we have it on a timer to water it and if I go out there, I get distracted with weeding (always more to do) and then I don't get the other things done that I need to.<br /><br />And our apple tree is out of control too - we'll be canning applesauce too.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01994557722572334977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519986092114737286.post-73206670396855833602013-06-20T06:41:14.317-07:002013-06-20T06:41:14.317-07:00What a beautiful garden.
