Angie and I have always wanted to grow a garden. We want to be self sufficient, eat healthy, and save money. The problem is that neither of us have much experience with gardening. We got the book Lasagna Gardening by Patricia Lanza, and we are committing to growing a garden following the guidelines in the book.
This blog is a family diary of our experiences. I hope it is at least entertaining, and at best helpful to you!

Almost ready for planting!

This weekend we added two more layers: crushed leaves(thank you Collins family), and compost from the City of Lincoln. We need to get one more load of compost, and we will be ready for planting!

Jackson enjoyed the leaves.
Our mower has a mulching blade on it, so we used it to chop up our leaves.

 

The compost from the City of Lincoln was great. 




Hannah is a hard worker, she is really into it.


We ran out of compost before we could get the last two boxes filled, so Ill get another load next weekend.
