Looks awesome I wish my garden was bigger!
If you have any extras you're just dying to get rid of, you know where to send 'em ;)
looks awesome jen!
i so wish i had a place with room for a garden. i was thinking about renting a community garden space, but didn't get my act together in time this year. i did plant carrots at my grandpa's house and i plan to visit my favorite local farm stand a ton this season.
hooray for homegrown fruits + veggies!
Mmm, I love home-grown produce. Tastes sooo much better that what you buy at the grocery store. Way to go on your successful garden! :)
Waaa, I want your garden! I actually don't have one, just whatever I can grow on a window ledge, but one day, when I'm grown up, I might have a real life garden with fruit and veg in it. One day...
Looks good! Caden and Dan have a garden this year too! How fun and delicious!

Looks great, Jen. Those peas are loaded with blooms. Wow!
Your kids have the best expressions!
Oh my. My garden looks really wimpy now. :p I thought I'd be so cool and start with seeds and I think the soil was too cool for so long that everything got such a late start. Next year I'm buying plants from the farmer's market for sure. And we are going to start composting too. And can we borrow Dave? ;) Maybe you could have him do a guest post on here sharing all of his gardening tips?? Please??! ;)
