Prepping The Garden: Phase 1

We have big plans for a garden this year. We had one last year, but it was small and didn't do very well. Well, we live and learn, right? With all the research and planning that Jeremy has done recently, we should have an AWESOME garden this year! It will include a pumpkin patch, corn, potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, and much more! Our focus is the pumpkins, which is why we wanted more space. Jeremy has this thing with pumpkins and growing them. Maybe because it reminds him of his most favorite time of year, and holiday, Halloween? Well, we hope to have a great pumpkin patch that we can share with our neighbors and enjoy watching them grow. It should be fun. First things first though...We needed a good ground to work with. Our good friend, Dave, came over with his tractor today and took care of that for us. He dug up the ground and got out some big rocks for us. Jeremy even got a lesson in operating that beast. There's still ALOT of work to do to the dirt to get it ready, but today was a major stepping stone. It was fun to watch too! Parker loved it and had to check it out. I'll keep an update of our summer project. It should be interesting. Wish us luck!
