Gardening.... First Step..

This is the first year in our new yard...we both love to garden!
I bought the book Square Food Gardening and this year we will see how this type of gardening goes...
 
Instead of a railing around our deck, hubby build raised boxes for my garden...as well he build the 4 x 4 boxes. We do have an area for our garden...but the nice thing about this type of gardening... you can put the boxes any where in your yard!
We bought our 'soil' ingredients....Vermiculite, compost, and peat moss!
 
Then the fun part comes of mixing these all together... AND I did help mix....but I had to take the pictures:)
Then we filled the boxes with the dirt...
 Added the square foot grids..
Planted our seeds...



To Be Continued........
