The question must be asked and it must be answered. Growing up my mother and father took care of a great garden...at least I think it was great and it seemed huge to me. The one plant I remember the most was carrots. I picked it to plant and I loved pulling them up. So, one of the reasons for this garden is so that my children can experience hard work and see the fabulous (hopefully) returns that will come from it.
The 2nd reason is because the prophet has told us to plant a garden. Who knows when I will need to know how to grow my own food...whether it be b/c that becomes more economical or because of disasters...WHO KNOWS??? All I am saying is, I don't want to be that girl that doesn't know how and has to rely on other people.
I want to be self-reliant.
I truly hope to see blessings come from this experience....and I hope it doesn't become a one time thing...I want to keep it up and try new things each planting. I am keeping this blog mostly for myself. I want to look back in a year and see my progress. If you are reading this though and have any tips for me..oh please share!
Happy Gardening to everyone!!
