Can’t believe how quickly things are sprouting up, given the biblical rainfall we received immediately after we planted the entire garden! Thought we’d have to replant, but instead it’s like Eden out there.

Could not have gotten to this point without help from family (hubby, children). Our little garden is definately a team effort:
