as our garden grows

awhile back our neighbors came over and helped us plant our garden in the front of our house. i thought i'd give a little update on the progress, and also give "before" and "now" pictures. we're pretty excited about what's growing!

here's some pics from our garden planting party.


We got about 17 rows in our little plot! Goes to show how much you can grown in a small urban garden! This is what we planted:

• 3 rows of carrots
• 2 rows of cauliflower and broccoli
• 1 or 2 rows of turnips, beets, and daikon
• 5 or so rows of red and green leaf lettuce and kale
• 1/2 row of cilantro
• 4 or so rows of snap peas and beans
• some bulbs and flowers for color and general prettiness

Here's what it looks like almost two months later:


pretty exciting. if you can't get enough plant pictures, here are some more.
