Turnips and Radishes
The garden has begun. It's exciting to watch the little sprouts grow. We have high plans for our garden so hopefully I will have some updates on our progress throughout the spring. What we got planned: turnips, radishes, tomatoes, cilantro, parsley, mint, yellow peppers, jalapeno peppers, carrots, beans, snap peas, okra, beets, eggplant, zucchini, squash - and others that I am forgetting...
We were able to use our first batch of compost too! It didn't take long at all. I think the tire tower method works fast, you just need to "turn" it often. Anyway, maybe I will post some photos of that later as well.

yea! it's looking great. can't wait to try some tomatoes off the vine!!!
sounds absolutely yummy! I'm composting too, but want to switch to tires. how many should i use for a mini garden (i don't have lots of space and primarily have a potted garden) Do you think 2 is enough?
Hey Tracie!! Yeah, I think 2 is enough. As we are planting our garden we are finding that so many vegetables are good for planting in pots: beans, snap peas, spinach, herbs, tomatoes, etc... That really helps for space!
~miss you.
