I See Beans: A Garden Tour

The garden out at my house is a family affair.  We’ve got bush beans, peas, onions (lots of types), potatoes, garlic, tomatoes, asparagus, radishes — and room for a lot more! 

My husband and I did the tilling and weed/grass removal.  My brother and sister in law are doing the planting and thistle removal.  We will all weed and EAT!  
I made a video with my two year old neice taking a tour of the garden.  She doesn’t see dead people – she sees beans!  Watch it here.  

Shawna Coronado, author of Gardening Nude, is also tracking gardens from around the states.  You can visit her website over here.  Shawna is sponsoring a challenge, why not send her pictures of your garden? 
Got dirty hands after all that great gardening?  Watch a great video on washing your hands (with non toxic soap). 
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

    I LOVE THIS! Too awesome – and thanks for promoting my “Get It Garden” challenge – I just moved 5000 lbs of buffalo manure for the challenge. WOOT! Gardeners rock!

    Take care,

    Shawna,
    I got to spend most of the afternoon w/my niece and we’ve just had a ball! Slight frost tonight, so have to cover the herbs I planted. We put on tomatoes tomorrow!
