So this weekend I started the Garden Project!
Yep, that’s right – we’re planting a 16’x8′ garden.
We’re doing it for a few reasons:
- We love fresh food and love to grill, so it’ll be great to just go out and pick some veggies,
- My wife likes to eat organic – so this is a good way to know we are getting organic food
- This should save us some money in the long run!
Hopefully I’ll throw a few posts up about our experience. Today was just getting the initial frame of the garden up.
At any rate, it’s another week in the books and it’s time for a fly by of the week.
