I love growing a garden. It reminds me of my childhood in Idaho because my parents always had a huge garden and we would eat from it all summer long. I loved going out and looking for the beans, squash and other veggies growing in our garden. It's something I want Elliott to experience and enjoy the deliciousness of fresh veggies, just can't beat the taste!
This year we grew: beans, peas, zucchini, tomatoes, carrots, beets and cucumbers. This was the first year I actually grew big carrots!! I've been making salads with my carrots, tomatoes and cucumbers and I have to say they are awesome. Elliott loves beets, zucchini, and cucumbers. Taylor likes nothing (except peas and carrots) HA!
