Our Garden

Amy and I are always buying cucumbers and tomatoes from the grocery store, so we thought it would be a good idea to try to grow some of our own this year.  A friend of mine even gave us some extra plants she had so we didn't need to purchase any.  In addition to tomatoes and cucumbers, she gave us a zucchini, a squash, and a couple cherry tomato plants as well.  Here's what our little garden looked like when we planted it:


And this is what it looked like a few weeks ago:


It actually grew things!  I'm pretty amazed.  So far we have eaten a small but tasty cucumber and a bunch of delicious zucchinis. The tomatoes aren't quite ready, but a few of the small ones are starting to redden.  Here's a few pictures of our crops:

We are totally farmers!!
