We Did It!

I guess I should really give all the credit to Braden, but I helped a little and Keara and Taryn helped, too. But we grew something in our garden! We had a beautiful garden a year and a half ago with tomatoes, snap peas, broccoli, lettuce, carrots, strawberries, and peppers. But the peppers never grew, the strawberries froze and produced little crop, the carrots were small and bendy, the lettuce tasted like dirt, the broccoli grew really funny, and sadly we lost our tomatoes and peas to the frost.


We planted raspberries in January and everyone tells us we're not supposed to be able to grow raspberries in the valley. But today Braden picked a red one! It was DELICIOUS! The best raspberry I've had. He's watered them, fertilized them, and tried really hard to get them to survive. There's another red one on another stalk, but it's not quite ready. Probably tomorrow. There are a ton of flowers and little raspberries growing, so we're hoping they'll make it before the heat!
