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!

To say that our lives have been "interesting" lately would be an understatement......but the garden is doing well. the only real trouble has been bugs. One of our potato plants has died, and we've had a bit of a war with horn worms on the tomato plants. Some of our bean plants are doing well, but bugs have gotten others. We broke down and bought some Sevin(dust on plants and it keeps the bugs away). I must say it works  very well. We have been eating lettuce, kohlrabi, and turnips.
