My Experiment

Perhaps you recall my post a while back about gardening. My main dilemna was where to place my garden in order to get the most light because we have so many trees surrounding our back yard. Well, instead of tilling up a big spot in my back yard with no guarantee of success, I opted for the girls' old sand box. It's now home to a tomato plant, purple basil, regular basil and thyme. So, far it seems to like the spot. So, if all goes well maybe we'll have a permanent garden in that spot next year. I also have a hanging cucumber plant that is thriving and some squash plants that are doing o.k. Keep your fingers crossed for some small doses of freshness around here, I know I am.
