After only a week of being planted, all of the seeds began to sprout!!
The next day, Brian told me to go outside and check out the garden, and I could already tell a difference!
...and again today! With as fast as things are growing, Brian added some lattice for our climbing plants to grab on to.
As a reward for our little project, we decided to add a fruit tree to our backyard too. Brian took our Cheeto boy shopping at a local nursery for a navel orange tree (and jalapeno plant).
We planted a magnolia tree a few years back that didn't make it, but we are hoping our little orange tree will! The blooms on it smell amazing.
I promise not to blog about our garden again until we have an actual piece of produce to show!

Please keep us posted on the progress of the farm weekly. Its delightful. And keep us up to date on Cheeto Boy's involvement. During trying times, sometimes the simple things are most uplifting.
FYI. Hot pepper plants are decorative as well as functional. I grow varietals from the Caribbean and Europe in clay pots all around the deck and patio. I even over-winter many inside. They are delightful. Caribbean Habeneros are intense. Just keep them away from children and pets.
Recommendation: Yellow pear tomatoes.
Tell Farmer Brian not to overplant. It creates multiple issues.
Next thing - you'll have to get into canning. Best of luck.
Thanks for the advice!
