Planting season is here!


With Memorial Day just around the corner, it's planting time in my neck of the woods!  This is the time of year when I hit the garden centers and greenhouses in full force for all of our summer annuals and veggie bedding plants. 

Unlike previous years, I've been going for the past few weeks to slowly get what I want for two reasons: 1.) so I can space out the cost over several weeks and 2.) so I don't get overwhelmed having to plant it all at once!  

Whether you live in a small house, or even an apartment, there's always a little room to grow something!  The joy of growing flowers, herbs and veggies is worth the expense and work. Now to just keep the rabbits from devouring it all!  Ugh!

Happy Planting!
