Aren't those beds beautiful? Don't they make you drool just a little. People can have their fancy cars, big houses and high fashion...just give me some wood and dirt and I'll be as happy as a worm. (I don't know that worms are happy per se...but as garden analogies go I thought worm was more appropriate than clam) I took this picture from Better Homes, but this is similar to what we'll be doing...though in a more simple way. I thought we'd go with raised beds this year, with Laurel and Luke each getting their own. They both picked pumpkins...so we'll see how that goes.
While not everything is sprouting yet, the peas and corn are taking off like gangbusters. And the tomato, lettuce, pinto beans and a few others are trailing behind. One of Laurel's pumpkin sprouts finally showed itself. We can't wait until we get to the camper...it's beyond wanting at this point...we need to be there.
We stopped at the Tractor Supply store yesterday and the baby chicks were out. If we had already been at the new house we would have snatched them right up...but we couldn't...not yet. It was so hard to leave the store without those little guys. We've also been researching where to buy our goats, which cost a lot more than I thought. But, nonetheless, we are hoping to be in the camper by the end of the week, have the garden in by the end of next week and then goats and chickens the week after that.
