Victory Garden


Update, my garden was trashed by hail! Life has not been kind to me this year.


Now that I am unemployed I have more time to grow a real garden.



In it will be my usual flowers



Rhubarb, Raspberries, Apples, and Strawberries



Cilantro, Chives


added this year

tomatoes, green beans, peas, spinach, radishes, onions, squash, & cucumbers



all jammed together in the pictured garden-on the right is a compost bin and a rain barrel.



In an other location next to a shed will be potatoes and zucchini.



This should keep me busy for awhile. Lucky for me I grew up in Montana (a good place to be poor) where my mother taught me how to grow a garden and 'can'. I will being doing a lot of that in the fall. I learned how to live well on a very small budget. Won't be much but will save a bit on groceries later.
