I'M BACK.....

Well I'm going to try this again. I am not the computer junkie that my wife is, so please understand if I don't always comment or blog as often.


I have decided to blog because I have started my garden. Now this is the first garden that I will grow by myself, but I have helped my Dad with his for years. The only difference will be that I will only use all organic materials and not all the chemicals that produce 20 pound tomatoes.

First I borrowed some old pallets from my Dad and broke them up. Then I used the wood to build these planter boxes.





Then I added some black trash bags to the bottom.






And finally we planted the onions. Some will become onions and some I'll pick early to eat as scallions.




Then we added a gate around them because we have a dog that loves to dig.





My next project will be tilling the area where my garden will be, so I'll keep you posted.

    Congratulations on starting up your blog again. It looks great!

    I hope your garden grows (I get to eat the delicious veggies too, right?)

    Nice start on your garden! I tried my hand at gardening last year for the first time. I randomly threw all the seeds I could find in the garden and a few things actually grew! This year I vow to be organized about it, although I made that same vow last year.

    I too love the step by step pics. As a wannabe gardener, I hope you'll keep it up!
