Garden: Take Two

The last time we tried to plant a vegetable garden did not go so well.  Just as things were turning ripe, it was all torn up by the tornado that came through our property in Oct. 2010.  It was such a shame... and so sad to see smashed tomatoes and bell peppers scattered through our yard! 

Well, time for take two.  I worked very hard to create a new little garden bed next to our house.  On the agenda this year... cucumbers, yellow bell peppers, sweet heat peppers, honey bear acorn squash and strawberries!




**Update:  While we did get to enjoy some of the sweet heat peppers (they were tasty!) and a few strawberries, our beautiful garden was destroyed by a nasty hail storm that came down in August.  :(  So disappointing!  Maybe I need to invest in a small backyard greenhouse?
