Baby Greens

It’s officially ‘the weekend’ for gardening.  While I share a garden with my mom (who has property), I also plant in containers on my deck, 15 floors above the city and overlooking the Pacific Ocean. In previous years, I’ve always grown flowers but decided to change it up this season and will be growing only veggies and herbs.  Tomorrow, mom and I will get the big garden started.  Today, I started mine:

I still have to plant my carrot, kale, beets, spring onion, and radish seeds.  So far, I’m finding more excitement planting food I can eat throughout the summer than the flowers I’m accustomed to watching bloom.
