Gardening Fail & Do Over!!! Not Giving up!!

So one of my clients likes trying a bunch of different things. One of the things he wanted to try is gardening. So last year we went to Costco got a raised bed & dirt, plants. We put it up and..... nothing!! He forgot about it unless I brought it up & even then is seemed like it was ALL my job. I felt like I was pushing him to do something he did not want to do. So I let it go. I thought that it was a waste of money & a total fail. But there was something nagging me in the back of my head saying try again. But why? I did not want to make this a hassle or forced. 

So I started to think it though. He loved to pick the strawberries when they were in season. Almost never did I need to ask him to do it. Why was that? Well, it was just outside the sliding door. Easy access, fun, easy. The other garden was around the corner, not seen, almost hidden.

So yesterday Christine, David & I went about moving the raised garden to the back. It was a team effort & a lot of fun. It did not take as long as we thought either. 

Now that is is moved & the dirt was put in David & I went shopping for veggies. We went to Potter's & ohh boy did David go hog wild. 

We got 2 lettuces, spinach, 2 tomato plants, cauliflower, zucchini & cucumbers.

He's known as Farmer John now. This is so better. I feel so much better. Not in the picture is a blueberry bush. I love spring. It is so full of potential.
