The Garden

The garden is done and planted.

Nathan (and Katherine) did an amazing job on the garden, complete with a gated entry.

We decided to try planting already growing plants rather than seeds and see how that works. We're already very excited by the instant gratification of having lots of fun green things the second they were in the ground.

We planted regular tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, red bell peppers, califlower, strawberries and artichokes. Hopefully they will all thrive, but I'm a bit worried as the way the sun moves across the sky the garden is shaded by the wall a lot of the day. Time will tell if it gets enough sun or not to have a winter garden.

I though this next picutre fit in with this post very well. Nathan taught Katherine how fun it is to make "fangs" out of her esparagus the other night at dinner. Oh Daddy!
