Gardening with your children provides valuable lessons, family togetherness time and plenty of fresh veggies to dress your table.
I’m a big slacker this year. My big, fat, Eco-Confession? I didn’t plant a garden this year. This means we have been relying on farmers markets and u-pick to survive! Ugh.
But, wait… I have a pretty good excuse. We moved this Spring. Our Spring was consumed with painting, cleaning, packing and unpacking. It was pretty crazy around here. Then my beloved Mama passed away and I didn’t want to do much of anything for a good two months. Now, I’m up and running… but my yard is far from it! Since this is a new to us home, there was already a bunch of yard work to do. Needless to say, we haven’t gotten around to much of it, which includes clearing the garden beds and replanting.
So, that’s the plan this weekend. Get those beds cleared and start our transplants inside the house. Good thing I have plenty of kids.
