Flourish; my young seedlings

Flourish my seedlings in the garden! Grow grow! Give us a year like last year! I may be fighting a horrible illness but when I’m in my garden I am at peace. I have 12 and 13 yr old boys and a wonderful honey that all chip in and help do the dirty work. Literally speaking 🙂

Turnips, tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, squash, are just a couple from last year. The fully grown plants are our 2015 garden. So far this year we have small plants and seedlings. We are hoping for some warmer weather!  Until it gets here of course…

This year we added 3 kinds of green beans, pea pods, couple types of peppers; ranging from sweet to holy sh*t 🙂 3 types of cucumbers, watermelon cantaloupe, pumpkin, peppermint.. Oh the List continues Eek! Food not lawns right?!

I do not use chemicals on my garden, it’s all compost from our home or a little cow poo. Of course my barefoot picture was taken before the cow poo.. But I’m sure it wasn’t the first time. My name is hippiegirl:)

I have learned if I put bar soap around the perimeter of the garden .. Our pesky Mr. Bugs Bunny and friends stay out! I’ve also used the inside of the vacuum container. They do not like the smell of our 2 dogs.

As I actually walked around my yard today I was able to see the full effects of Spring! The white and pink bush has a beautiful smell. The working little honey bees love the monstrous tree.

Any ideas to what they are would be greatly appreciated!

Step within a foot of the tree and you can hear all the busy busy bees.
