Organic Gardening Progress this week 8/23 - Week 2

Today I picked up some greens from my little garden.  :)


We drink cold mint tea all summer long. Kale and cucumber will be used in our fresh salad.  Parsley and basil will add flavor to the pasta sauce later today. 

My veggies have grown since last week





My boyfriend bought me two tomatoes and one zucchini plant. You only can see one tomato on the picture because I planted zucchini and another tomato in a different spot.

Little tomatoes from seeds are getting bigger. I will be planting them outside soon.

I planted root from store bought celery and I have a new plant now. It's much easier than to grow celery from a seed! I like recycling!






















Happy Gardening!

New Veggie Bed - Week 1

Yesterday and today I was working on creating a new veggies bed.
So far it looks like this

I had to add these old flowers and folks in order to distruct my cats from using this veggie bed as their litter box.

I made a little diagram of stuff I planted there, so I would remember. :) I am not sure which plants actually will survive due to our weather and my cats but i will hope for the best. 



This is my veggie bed on the other side 




Not much so far...

I have a small messy veggie bed in the other corner of my backyard but it doesn't have much there instead of lonely cucumber plant, kale and parsley.

I think by posting pics and progress here I will stay more organized and keep working on my veggies beds instead of abandoning them. :)

Soon I will be planting these plants too. They are mostly tomatoes, lemon grass and something else. My cats dropped two boxes down one day and now I am not sure which plants are growing in this box besides easily identified tomatoes.
