Planting

We planted a lot from seed and a few things we bought as plants. 

We soak the seeds before planting them - no more than four hours:

The kids help to plant the crops, then water them in. 

Sugar Snap peas - 3-24-12


Watering in the zucchini 3-24-12:


Planting tomatoes - 3-28-12:


Planting bush beans - 3:30-12:



We had everything planted by 3-30-12 this year. We left two boxes open to do some more corn later as we want the crops to be staggered so we aren't inundated with corn all at one time.

This is the fun part of the gardening - the kids love to help, everything is pretty and neat and it's not so darn hot outside you feel worn out just standing there. 

It's full of promise!
