A couple of weeks ago we decided to do a raised bed garden. With raised beds, we can use better soil. Our soil from the ground is just too sandy and rocky for a vegetable garden. Dad helped us make boxes for the raised beds and we filled them with soil. Now we are working on getting the fence up around the plot.
I tried starting my tomato seeds indoors a couple of months ago. The first batch sprouted and then died not long after. The second batch hardly sprouted at all. I have found that I don’t have much of a green thumb. I have a new respect for people that can actually grow something from a seed. Oh well, I hope that the rest of the things I plant will turn out all right.
