Garden Time!!

Well, that time if finally here, planting time!! I am super excited to start our garden this year. There are a couple of reasons why I am so excited. First, we have more room, and second, we have better soil. The last time we tried to plant vegetables the soil was rocky, and did not do well at all.  I love to garden because it saves you so much money, and you just cannot beat the taste of fresh product.

So far I have planted a container full of chives, green onions, and parsley. I have also planted four strawberry plants, two blue berry plants, and garlic.









Tomorrow the space below will be transformed into my raised bed garden. I have big plans for my small garden, and hope that it will do well, but I will post updates regularly.





Now for some even more exciting news!! Hometownseeds.com has a great package of seeds labeled the Emergency Survival Seed package. This awesome package includes; sweet corn, peas, radish, onion, beet, tomato, spinach, cabbage, swiss chard, lettuce, carrot, pepper, winter squash, cucumber, pole bean, and squash zucchini seeds. I don't know about you, but I think that is A Lot of seeds!! Hometownseeds was generous enough to send me a Survival Seed package to try out, and tomorrow I will be planting those seeds. The even better part is, Hometownseeds.com is offering one of my lucky readers (that's you) the chance to win a Survival Seed package (which retails for $34.99 plus shipping) of their very own!!

I am interested in cultivating one slightly shaded section of my yard into a wildflower garden, so the Elite Mix of Wildflower Seeds is what I'd be interested in. I've already got my veggies in the ground :)
