Just a real quick update showing the veggies we picked this evening. Funny how something as simple as gardening can be so fulfilling. Thanks for watching our video!

Just a quick video this week as not much has changed, but we’re picking some fresh veggies. That’s what it is all about, isn’t it? Thanks for watching and leave any advice or suggestions if you have any.

First…Happy Father’s Day to all those Dads out there! It’s been about a month since we started growing. Everything is still pretty heathy, but some things are producing more fruit than others. Our son recently graduated high school with honors (ok……I’m a proud dad), so yesterday was his grad party. We had tents, tables, food and people all over the backyard. It was a lot of fun. There was a great deal of interest over the containers – upside down and right side up. Several people said they will be doing the same thing next year. Thanks for viewing and feel free to leave any suggestions or advice.

Hope everyone had a good 4th of July! Not much has changed. Everything still pretty healthy. Bell peppers are changing colors and the cucumbers are doing well. Tumbling Toms are producing several ripe tomatoes every nite. Be warned: I am now formally planning my garden for next year. Boy, am I gonna have some fun! My wife can’t believe we haven’t really even started harvesting a lot of veggies and I’m already looking forward to next year….LOL. Thanks for looking. Any advice, please leave me a post.
