Green thumb

The garden planting has begun! This year gardener Scott went with a different technique called square foot gardening. He has planned this out since winter, and was very anxious to start planting. Here are his 2 very inexperienced assistants that have to "help" too.

So this year we have expanded quite immensely...need I say more! We have 61 red onions, 14 tomato plants, 12 various pepper plants, 14 watermelons, 128 stalks of corn, along with lettuce, pumpkins, broccoli, green beans, carrots, and sunflowers. Can't forget about oregano, basil, cilantro, and I'm sure I missed some! I'm pretty sure we'll be setting up a produce stand in a few months. Let's hope he has a green thumb!
