our garden

ezra kissing a zucchini

we hadn't checked our garden in about three days and this is what we found! we couldn't even carry it all to the car in one trip. ezra eating a green bean (he doesn't eat green beans) but whenever we pick things he wants to take a bite. he even tried to take a bite of a cayenne pepper the other night.

ezra is playing in the children's part of the community garden. this is the tee-pee with plants growing up string to make the walls . the children's area also has a sand box and a wild garden where all the seeds were scattered and left to grow wild. ezra and eli love going to the garden and checking to see what has grown. ezra loves to pick all the veggies for us, even the ones that aren't quite ready. if you have never gardened it is strangely addictive. it's the kind of thing where you get alot more out of it then what you put into it, i'm not just talking about the food.although it is really fun about picking food that you have grown and making a meal out of it. it sounds sort of cheesy but i think it is a good learning experience for us and our boys because you feel closer to nature seeing all that it can produce. so grab your hoes and work 'em!
