Debbie and I went to the garden to see what was growing after the rain and nice warm sunny days we've had. Well, we found lettuce, radishes, carrots, beets, herbs, rhubarb, potatoes, onions and much more. In fact, everything we planted has come up except the romaine lettuce. I think we will have more than enough greens for everyone without the romaine.
We didn't think the peas were growing but we found them among hundreds of thistles! It's a good thing we had thick gloves on! Now at least you can see the rows. All we need to do is wait until the ground dries a bit and then till the rows to get rid of the rest of the weeds.
It's so exciting to see what God produces from little tiny seeds! Go for yourself and see God handiwork.
It's April and our sprouts are springing up and so are the weeds! It's so exciting to see those little seeds go into the ground, add a little sun, water and a lot of prayer, and they become something we can eat. We just planted a couple of grapevines yesterday. We have big plans for this garden and it's not about just raising food for us to eat. It's about helping our neighbors eat fresh, healthy vegetables and fruit. It's a great way to get to know our neighbors, too.
