GREEN THUMB

This year Damien and I tried our hands at being farmers and it has been an incredible 5 months! We built a garden box, filled it with local organic soil/compost, and started plants from organic seeds. This summer so far we have had the pleasure of eating strawberries, tomatoes, kale, zucchinis, cucumbers, carrots, and sugar snap peas grown organically by us. We still have so many more that we are anxiously awaiting to be ready. It is amazing what one can produce with a little time, water, sun, dirt, and love. We have saved money, had a wonderful time, and are working on becoming a little more self-sustaining.
