first harvest

Today we got to enjoy our first meal supplemented with garden veggies - BLTs with freshly picked lettuce.  YUM!

we need plants

So, our seed starting experiment was a bust.  We got some tomato starts that grew very tall very fast, so the stalks couldn't support the leaves.  The pepper seeds never started.  We think we should have packed the soil into the tubes better.  Lots of lessons learned, though!

Now we need plants to fill our garden.  Please check out our "help us grow" page to get updated needs.  Your donations are greatly appreciated!

And not all was a loss with our seeds - we are going to have a great harvest of lettuce and radishes soon.  Pictures are forthcoming!
