One of the biggest draws to our home when we purchased it in 2014 was the huge garden. But, it needed a lot of work and TLC.
In July of 2014 this is what we were working with:
We spent the remainder of the summer and into the fall pulling weeds and trying to figure out what exactly we were working with.
We made major progress in the Spring of 2015. We cleared out a lot more stuff. We tore up tons of carpet and built some new gates. We began to see it's potential!
We are still learning as we go and 2015 wasn't a hugely successful gardening year for us. But, we're so excited to get planting and see how it goes this Spring and Summer!
We do keep our garden totally organic. No fertilizers or pesticides of any kind. This does mean we get lots of weeds, but that's okay by us. We do our best to keep up with the weeding, but it doesn't take long for it to get out of control!
