I don't really have anything fascinating or fun going on this week so I thought I would give you an update on my mini farm.....aka my garden. Look at my lettuce! I'm loving that it it starting to turn fun colors and shapes! On the left you see my two pepper plants- one yellow and one rainbow variety. And three t'mater plants- on big plant in the center and two smaller on the right. And that blank space is where my carrots are growing.




Remember when I told you that I planted the root bottoms of the green onions last year? And the squirrels dug most of them up so only two little onions survived? Well this weekend as I was walking up the back steps, I looked over to see several green sprouts in the gutter. And realized that the squirrels must have tossed the onions in the gutter. But there was so much dirt/leaves in there that they were growing!! I reached in to find several baby onions, walked back down the stairs and properly planted them. Even if you just have some pots on your back deck, you should try this. Save the root ends of the green onions and bury them. It's like two for the price of one green onions. And it's fun to see something great grown from something you would usually throw away.
