Spring Update 2



We actually helped plant a real, live garden this spring!

We just recently started meeting with a homeschool nature study group, and last week the agenda was getting a communal garden going.

Aren't these bush beans gorgeous? Who ever heard of purple seeds??



Jed planted lettuce and marked it with his own popsicle stick. The writing would be better but it was hard for him to concentrate and swat the black flies away at the same time.










Watering his lettuce. Definitely more fun than planting.








Jed's favorite activity came after the planting and watering were done. With the rainy, foggy, chilly, gloomy weather we've had this spring, there are too many puddles just begging to be stomped in...definitely too many for a 7 year old boy to resist.
