My small garden

Posted on 2006-Jan-10 at 01:55

Dh decided to make us a compost box. He got free(don't you just love that word?) pallets from the local newspaper. He then cut them to the same size and made a box. Here is it :)

This was our garden last year.

As you can tell we have an open yard, that will hopefully be solved this year with taxes. :) We had most of our tomatoes and green peppers stolen.  I am hoping that this year that won't be a problem. 

Here is a picture of one of our transplanted blueberry bushes.

They are tearing down the trees where there are close to 50 wild blueberry bushes near us. So we went and got 2 bushes for our backyard. We are hoping that they will grow. We might go back and get more bushes in the spring(if there are anymore left). They also have the muscadine grape vines growing where they are building a road, we might try and get those to grow along our fence.

I think that your garden looks great....

Since I am still a homesteading wannabe I need raised beds that are sectioned off just like you have!
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us ! :)
