Our veggie garden is limited to the area around our porch. We have lots of strawberries coming up already!<br /><br />Thanks for this great post! We went to a picnic and planted some starter seeds for Earth Day!<br /><br />Take care,<br />MichelleMichelle (Red Headed Book Child)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02203139179710289533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-2114302992144960802010-04-25T03:03:18.152-04:002010-04-25T03:03:18.152-04:00I'm doing a garden this year for the first tim...I'm doing a garden this year for the first time in years! :)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-17912108549304794362010-04-23T22:32:47.919-04:002010-04-23T22:32:47.919-04:00Cool Christine!!

I may even have some perennials I can dig up and give to you for your yard. I'm always looking to swap plants with someone. Whatcha got growing in your yard? <br /><br />Leslie: Omgosh! You have GOT to try SunChips! They're soooo good! If you like whole grain taste, that is. :D <br /><br />Dottie: Hi! :) <br />I think that's very cool that your mom has always been a huge conservationist. I'm under the impression that you and I are along the lines of the same generation, so your mom was probably very much ahead of the times. <br /><br />Thanks for visiting today! :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-22332092331208517342010-04-23T18:05:56.484-04:002010-04-23T18:05:56.484-04:00Hi Christine!

I usually makes different excuses ;-)<br /><br />But like I said your post is very inspiring, I might give this gardening thing a try. I'm reading Blue Dahlia at the moment by NR and she talks a lot about gardening. And that sun chips bag is awesome! I have a box of SC still waiting for me to eat them all. <br /><br />I'll keep an eye on your next posts about gardening and I'd like to see after the 14 days if you'd get the same results as others.

Nom nom nom! <br /><br /><br />KB: SunChips FTW! <br /><br /><br />Lolly: You don't own a TV? That is all kinds of awesome. We don't watch much TV, but the husband does watch sports (football a.k.a. soccer mostly) we watch movies, and play video games. I heart Beatles RockBand. ;) <br /><br /><br /><br />azteclady: Do it! It's SO easy! I always wanted to make it a fenced space like a bin... using old pallets or something, but never got around to it. You'll have to let me know how you build it. <br /><br />I forgot to mention how cathartic it is sometimes to take a pitchfork to something. LOL. O__o <br /><br /><br />Lea: Thank you! I actually don't have a very green thumb when it comes to garden, but I love it anyway and I keep trying. I look forward to sharing photos from my postage stamp homestead. LOL! <br /><br /><br />Brandy: Isn't that bag great? If .... WHEN you make your compost pile, you'll have the perfect excuse to eat some chips and do the same experiment with the kids! <br /><br /><br />Phyl: High five for becoming a composter! My garden has to be re-established from scratch since the addition, but hopefully I can get it going in time so I'm not picking my first tomato in September or something. <br /><br /><br />Jace: Thank you! :) <br /><br /><br />Carolyn: I am VERY together with my composting. It's my thing. Just m and the dirt and worms. And the microorganisms I can't see. We're happy. ;o)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-62532671399076359632010-04-23T09:54:29.373-04:002010-04-23T09:54:29.373-04:00This is really cool!
