Garden Box

The continuing saga of the winter garden is slowly coming to a close. We finally have the structure built and filled in with soil. Now we just need to plant our seeds. Yes that’s right seeds! One day while Ben and the kids were playing outside Bear decided that it would be a good idea to destroy all the hard work we had done on getting ready for our garden and empty out our starter kits. Now we have to start from scratch. Hopefully everything will grow and produce some good stuff but there is no guarantee. The kids did have lots of fun helping Dad get everything ready. They were great little helpers in building the forms and using the drill. We have a slight slope in the back yard as well so we had to dig out our plot a little before filling it in. Bear and Isabelle really enjoyed playing in the dirt. Now the trick will be keep them out of the soil once we get everything planted.
