Taters!

This morning Floyd Michael brought me a bowl of small potatoes from the garden. We didn't actively plant potatoes. They seem to grow from compost material. Apparently we also have a compost tomato plant too.

We are really having so much fun with the garden. Floyd refers to the garden as his "crops", and communes with them both morning and evening.

Jason has his own strawberry plants, which he waters and checks for progress each time he visits.

The garden fits in really well with our preparedness and provident living goals.

We are especially looking forward to a ton of zuccini this year, since someone (me) meant to grab one more plant at Lowe's but instead grabbed a multi-pack of four (to add to our existing zuccini stash. Daniel should be thrilled, as he can't get enough zuccini. Hopefully we won't turn into those people who foist huge zuccini off on all of the neighbors!
