The Garden is IN

Thanks to my neighbors, and buying too many plants for themselves, I got motivated to finally put the garden in.
Planted green onions (thanks Debbie) and peppers (thanks Missa and Cody oh and the guy from work who didn't want them) and thank you Jonnie for watching my tomatoe plant while we were gone.
We are trying watermelon and canteloupe this year. Pumpkins that always seem to grow on their own. Artichokes but I don't think we will have those until next year. I am trying strawberries but so far they are failing we will see. Radishes and cucumbers and Lettuce lots of lettuce.

Oh and our funniest project..Our neighbors directly behind us are no longer living there and the house isn't for sale. They never did anything with their yard..soo we have planted corn lots and lots of corn. The neighbor on the left side of the house used the rototiller and took out half the back yard that was all weeds and they were encrouching on our lawns We have both planted corn. I am so excited. If they end up selling the house they will only have half the yard to rip all the weeds out of and they will have some corn. :> Its a win win in my book.
