Quote of the Week

"You have to get up and plant the seed and see of it grows, but you can't just wait around, you have to water it and take care of it."

Always Grateful

Been spending a lot of my time on YouTube, lately, sorry I've been neglecting this space, I want to do better, however, sometimes I don't feel like I'm bringing any value to this page. Then there are other times where I just want to share pictures and talk about the process of growing something.Today, I share with you a picture from the garden of a hefty tomato (might be brandywine), grown by moi---I really need to find the name of these babies, I'm sure I have it written in my planner somewhere. 

Even though you can't tell, there's two plants in this garden area. These two plants (there were three) were grown inside/ on top of a bag of soil on the other side of my front yard. In the soil bag, jalapeƱo, eggplant and carrot seeds were planted-but nothing but the tomatoes survived. 

After the tomatoes grew to a height I was comfortable transplanting them into their permanent home for the growing season, all three did very well in the beginning, but unfortunately one didn't make it.  

After all the crazy weather my area has experienced during this growing season, I'm very grateful for all that has grown in the garden.


Sincerely,
