Adjuncts to the Garden
Along with doing the "traditional" garden, we are doing a small pseudo container garden in our yard. We are doing this mostly as we want to let the girls (mostly Nora) help through the process of growing these vegetables so they start to get an understanding of how to grow your own food. I guess we are learning together as I am not 100% what I am doing either :)
We have just three plants here: A large "bush" heirloom tomato plant, a Sequoia Strawberry Plant, and a Red Raspberry Plant in these pots.
Our hope is that if nothing else, these three plants turn out to be the best of all of our gardening with all of the attention they should get from the whole family (even Hank as you can see). We are not expecting too much from the raspberry plant this year, but with the fence nearby we should be able to get some good vines going this year that will lead to a bountiful volume of raspberries next year.
Topsy Turvey information tomorrow......
