Our Veggie Garden!

I’ve always loved the idea of having a veggie garden.
Tasty, healthy, vegetables
right in my front yard.
Yes please!

The only problem is
I do not have a green thumb in my body.
I’ve killed every plant and flower I have ever received.
My husband’s grandma
who is an excellent gardener
says it’s because I give them too much love and attention.
I think she’s just trying to be nice.

Anyways, when we moved a few months ago
it just so happened (actually it was totally intentional)
that we moved right next door
to our great friends.
And it just so happens that our friends are great gardeners!

After h.o.u.r.s. of hard work
tearing out a ton of old bird of paradise plants
and 8 trash bags full of roots

we finally planted a huge veggie garden in our front yard!

Isn't is pretty?

After our pretty vegetables were in the ground
we decided they needed some labels.

We had a ton of these flat rocks in our front yard so I
decided to paint them like I did these rocks
and use them as our labels.

They ended up being really easy and I love how they turned out.

I love it when a project turns out how I wanted it to.



Do you guys have vegetable gardens?
Any gardening tips or secrets you want to share?
