For Earth Day I started a garden. We have a small raised greenhouse in our backyard which was just calling to me saying, "Hey Jordan, come plant something in me, I'm so lonely out here." So of course I had to oblige. I planted carrots, radishes, green onions, squash and cucumbers. Tomorrow I'm planting another variety of carrot, lemon cucumbers, and hopefully some yellow wax beans.
If you're wanting to plant a garden it's not too late. There are tons of things you can still plant. If you don't have a lot of space, don't fret.
Container gardens are becoming very popular for those who live in apartments and only have a tiny amount of balcony/porch space.
If you are looking for some great organic heirloom seeds look no further than
Cubit's on etsy.
Oh yay! I love gardens! And radishes, cucumbers and carrots are SO much better when they come from your own garden!

ReplyDeleteA) That picture is awesome.
ReplyDeleteB) I will come be your garden gnome, yes? I will just hang out and occasionally pilfer your nommy veggies! =)
C) Vegas is HARD to garden in at all, even container gardens. I had a decent tomato plant last year, but it has since died. Mostly, I can't keep things watered well enough outside due to the heat and inside they tend to not get enough sun.
D) Thank you for the super sweet comment on my blog. <3 I responded over there as well, but wanted to make sure you saw the thank you. =)
WOW, I love gardens, wish I had one but I live in a flat. Best of luck with your garden, I bloghopped here, hope you're having a great day!

Good luck with the garden. Cukes are notorious wanderers. keep an eye on them.
