A found Hobby:
I posted on my profile that I didn't know what my hobbies where and guessed my kids where my hobby. I figured every summer I grow a garden and that counts as a hobby. This year we tried something different planter boxes! Last fall mark built me two huge planter boxes they are over six feet long. Then we filled them with with compost soil. So this spring I planted tomatoes, and beans in one and squash, spinach, cabbage,carrots, radishes,and beets in the other. I have decided I love planter boxes. Less weeds, and the plants love it! Down side is you have to water more, but I would rather water than weed. I love fresh produce form the garden they are so yummy and it is much cheaper to grow them than buy them at the store.

I planted some raspberries as well this spring. I remember growing up and having raspberries. I loved all the jam growing up and eating fresh berries from the vines. I wanted to have fresh raspberry jam again. We got a few to eat, but it will be a few more years before we have enough to make jam.

I planted more bush beans in the old garden plot. I had to plant them twice this year. I do not know if it was old beans or the weather was to crazy the bean seed went bad before they could sprout. See all the weeds that is after many hours of weeding. We will be turning this spot into planter boxes this fall so they will be ready for next spring, and less weeding. Wish me a plentiful harvest!
