                                                               Green and leafy

Fresh and healthy

   
                                       dirt,water, and labor required

      (excuse the grass covered dirt my brother cut around the garden the the grass shooting out the undesired way.)


                                          cool and country feeling

                                              Photogenic and yummy (in the end)

                                                      Neat and straight

                                      fertilized dirt...
(that's where the animals come in handy,sorry just a fact you should consider when you have animals and are starting a garden. )

herbs,tomato's,radishes,onions

beans,lettuce,squash,watermelon

                                   Ah,such is a garden.

Note: my soon to be teenage brother is responsible for almost all the work in the garden.

He has one major green thumb when it comes to gardening a hobby,gift and love of his. :)

But we must not forget the free labor,time and money for fencing to keep the plant eaters away.

Fencing for the goats to give them a pasture and blocking them from a chance to get into the garden. 


Fact: Fencing (not the sword fighting type the labor/work type) is one of my favorite ways to spend time with my Dad,even though we don't talk except for,  "hold this,pull,tie or please hand my the pliers." But I love spending time with my Daddy this way,plus I feel more helpful.


   




               What is one of your favorite times with your Dad?

Tomatoes,Beans, and our first Watermelon!

The Picture below is everything,but the skin and seeds after it went through our juicing machine(I don't know what you call it)                                         

The picture above is when were smashing the tomatoes down into the blender part! Every ones favorite part of this process!

 Tomatoes waiting to be used!Fresh picked tomatoes!

We cook the sauce all day with herbs until it thickens.  I stirred the sauce then to a picture, that's why it looks kind of weird!

Pizza sauce! Sorry about the terrible picture quality!

Our first watermelon of this year!! Yummy!  I totally love watermelon!

Here's the beans we got out of one row on our first day of picking beans! lol,we pretty much at all of them before my dad got home that evening!

My next post will be fair pictures I promise! A few horse pictures,but mostly my sister and I when we were showing goats! And pictures of a new pet to our tiny farm (if you can call it a farm)  ; )
