Garden time

Time to start planting some seeds today..... Wow this grass is sure tall how am I going to make it to the garden?    I think I may be lost in my own back yard.   Sheesh my roommates really need to mow. 


Ahhhh finally made it to the garden bed. This raised bed is beary big. So much space to plant. 


 Now, let me see where I want to plant my seeds. Arugula, lettuce my favorite. I hope the rabbits Sandy saw today don't come down to eat the lettuce.  Onions and Cilantro....yipee maybe we can make some Mexican food when they come in.  

What?  I can't plant the peas in the garden? I need to plant them in a pot....I wonder what Jerry thinks I should do?  Gardening is such hard but rewarding when the vegetables are ready for harvest.  What to do while I wait for them to grow, hmmmmm  maybe take a hike?

  1. Good for you! Although I must say... it looks like you were on safari as you forged through that tall grass (it's the same here). Our peas and spinach are already coming up - so exciting!

    1. I felt like I was on safari (I wish my roommates would take me on a real African Safari). I should have brought my flag and staked the garden out for Stuffies.

  2. Gardening is hard work! Jerry plants many more flowers than vegetables, and Ben plants herbs that he uses to cook. You and Sandy are the big vegetable gardeners....we're seeing your own show on the Stuffie TV Network!

  3. We will need to contact Jerry when we do phase two of our garden, that is the flower beds. I am partial to wildflowers but I am always interested in telling my roommates about colorful perenial flowering plants that they could plant. Any suggestions. Ben, we plant chives, basil, and rosemary, do you plant those herbs too?

    1. Well... we are having to learn what are "deer-proof" flowers, which is quite a task! Apparently they don't like daffodils or snowdrops... But we need more than that! I'd be interested to see Ben's ideas for perennials...

  5. Look at at you all in the soil! I wish my mom would let me play in the dirt.
