I Got Beans!!

For the last 3 years our garden has not done very well. So this year Chester decided to put Miracle Grow Garden Soil in each row before we planted the seeds. Well it performed miracles!! I got 1 1/2 bushels green beans in my first picking!! I have already put up 21 quarts of green beans plus eat a mess Sunday with new potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes and homemade biscuits.YUM YUM!! They were delicious! We also got our first two cucumbers out of the garden yesterday and I loaded cottage cheese with cucumbers, green onions and tomatoes.(one of my favorite dishes) Does anyone else have a garden?

I also listed another Betsy Mouse The Star Spangled Banner in my Etsy shop. Check out my other listings

Simply Quaint said...: Oh boy does that all sound good, yes we have a garden, we are in northeast Ohio we got ours planted on Memorial day weekend, we have tiny little zucchinni squash coming on, we've had onions, potatoes are doing so so, beans are hit and miss, cucumbers and tomatoes look like they will be plentiful. Dh is going to put some manure on ours at the end of this season and then we should have a better crop next year. Enjoy!

Unknown said...: I plant a garden each year just like momma and daddy did. Great way to get good food! I also run a local food pantry thru our church. I asked all of the local gardners to plant 2 extra plants and donate that food to the pantry. I already have several varieties of food coming in! I thought this was a way for people to share their abundance with others!; June 25, 2012 at 2:39 AM

A Word of Thanks

First, I would like to say that I am computer illiterate and without the help of a few good friends, I would not have been able to have this blog.
I would like to thank Sage of Sagewood Farms for the many hours she spent teaching me how to open a blog.
I would also like to thank Brenda from Hattie's Workshop for the awesome banner that she made me.
I am grateful to Judy of Primfolks by Judy, Susan from Threadbare Primitives and Donna from Moonchild's Primitives for giving me permission to use the products that I have made from their patterns to display in my banner.
And lastly, I would like to thank all my friends from Prim Sister's Talk Radio Gathering Room who have had the patience to teach me what all the computer language means and for giving me ideas on primitive creating.
I have found that there are so many people in the primitive community that are willing to help beginners get started and for that I am very grateful. Thanks everone!
