We started a small vegetable garden this year. Here are a few things we picked today. We are growing tomatoes and peppers. We also have 2 apple trees that have produced some good apples that we've used to snack on, make apple crisps, coffee cakes, and applesauce. Yum!
The kids have been very involved in planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting all our goodies. It has been a great learning experience for all of us and we have really enjoyed eating the fresh veggies and fruits. We are planning a bigger garden for next year and will try growing more veggies and will start most of them from seed. We've been reading lots of gardening books to prepare for next season. We'll start digging the new garden out and planning it this fall to get ready for spring planting.
