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!

It's been a while, Garden Update

We have been pretty busy lately. Here is an update on our garden:

I would say that our lasagna garden has worked out very well so far. When weeds show up, pulling them is simple. We have been eating the lettuce, spinach, and turnips.
Our initially planted peas, carrots, and onions did not come up(we replanted with  sets and they are doing better). Our first batch of beans were eaten by bugs, so we replanted and now we are putting powder on them to protect them. My sweet corn is doing well.
