Planting My Victory Garden

This Spring my girls and I made a few raised beds and planted bunches of pots with lettuces, kale, spinach, beets, carrots, beans, peas, tomatoes, herbs, strawberries, squash, and pumpkins. It's been so rewarding to watch everything start to sprout and grow. If we can fight off the ever-present snails and my vegetable and fruit-eating cairn terrier, it will be fun to harvest and eat them this summer.

 

Our seeds are sprouting in one of the raised beds we built.

 

Snap peas will grow up and over the trellis. Too many in the pot and will have to move a few.

It's hard to believe how big these strawberries are getting. Now if we'd get a little sunshine, they might just ripen enough to eat!
