Tomatoes, spinach, corn, and herbs. These are the good things growing in our garden. I love having a garden (ok- a few earth boxes!). My husband is actually the green thumber in our household, but I’m getting better. It’s exciting for me and my kids to see God’s creation growing and then getting to enjoy the fruits of our labor.

My mom and stepdad have blessed us with more food than we could possibly eat from their garden. Just today, I was given romaine, cabbage, broccoli, peas, and red leaf lettuce. As I was washing and cutting, my kids joined in and began to nibble. There is something so wonderful about being in the kitchen together!

I know many of you also have some experience in growing your own fruits and veggies. I would love to hear what you have grown or are growing. What has grown well for you? Also, here is a planting schedule for the US.
