Planting

is easy with the EarthWay planter!
My husband purchased it several years ago for me.
I love it!
You can find more info here.

I planted the Saturday before Mother's Day. It was a beautiful day to be out & the dirt felt wonderful between my toes.
Every year I have big dreams for my garden, this year was no exception. I am laughing now, because, there is no way I will be able to keep it weed free this summer. Tilling is pretty much out for this pregnant mama. The funny thing is, I don't really care. Weeds or no weeds, we will still have yummy produce to eat.

I planted Sweet Corn for fresh eating & Indian Corn, wellllll because it looked fun.
My dad plants a couple acres of sweet corn for us to freeze each year, my measly row of sweet corn won't provide much for my hungry tribe of sweet corn lovers, but it will satisfy a few meals.

Every year when I plant,
I doubt
I question
Will those little tiny seeds really sprout?
Will they grow into plants that produce?
Year after year, I get the same results...
about 10 days later, little green flecks start to line my garden.
Why do I doubt?
Because I can't see what is taking place in the seed under the ground.
I don't understand what happens as the soil houses the seeds, the spring rain nourishes, and God's miraculous engineering unfold.
It's a lot like our lives.
We speak Truth into those around us


French Fillet Green Beans are our favorite.
We have 4 rows of them!

Tenderette Green Beans produce later in the season & longer than the French Fillet.
We have those too.

Hopefully soon, green shoots of:

Radishes Peas Lettuce Green Onions Onions Cucumbers Pumpkins Corn Green Beans Brussel Sprouts
Potatoes

Will be popping!


There it is, minus the tomatoes, peppers & herbs.
Those will be going in today or tomorrow.

Now, to keep the weeds down...
Any suggestions?
