What a Peach!

I can't believe it!  We actually have two tiny little peaches on the tree that Mark planted a couple months ago.  They are so cute.  They're about the size of a gumball.  I can't wait to see if anymore pop out.


The tomatoes are almost ready to go into the ground.


And.....the lettuce seeds that were planted a week ago have germinated.


Isn't it amazing that everything starts from something small, a tiny seed, or a tiny grain of sand, or a tiny egg, or a drop of water.

Time to Sow the Seeds!

My husband loves to hang out in the yard.  He always has a million different things going on in the yard.  We have 5 acres so it keeps him pretty busy.  He keeps everything organic - no herbicides, pesticides, etc.  He ordered some heirloom seeds this year.

They started like this....

  Here are the little tomato seedlings that he just separated into cups.

and now they look like this.



He's getting ready to order a couple thousand worms.  Being the ever-supportive wife, I said "oh, that's great" when he showed me the box that he is preparing for the worms,  While inside, I was envisioning millions of squishy, disgusting worms invading my house.


The Worm Box

He tried some strawberries this year.  They are growing, not quite as fast as he was told they would grow, but they ARE growing.

Also, the first year for potatoes.  I can't wait to see if this works out.
