my new garden

This is my herb and veggie garden that i started in front of my house, its still in progress, i had to move my raised beds because they were destroyed last year when they put in the water line to the house. I also want to put a patio in next year where the fountain is. But i think its starting to look nice.

This is what it looked like last fall when we got the house done, and new steps put on, before veggie/herb beds and flowers.

Wow, Edwina! You have really put a lot of work into it.

It looks like a well established garden already. Hard to believe it looked like the last picture only last year.

I also like the raised beds for the vegetable garden. You can sure get a lot more things planted in a small area.

It's looking so lush and colorful! Quite a change from last year's pic! Do you use a lot of fresh herbs in your cooking?

Wow is the word, alright. Well done, Edwina. It must be very satisfying to see it come along so fast.

I have to use raised beds, our ground is so wet, and clay, that it takes forever in the spring early summer to get anything started because you cant till the ground.
