Herb garden

Well let me start off by saying that I am definitely not the green thumb in our family! Dusty has always enjoyed being out in the backyard, weeding, mowing, planting flowers, etc. I like the look of it, but I can never seem to keep things from dying:) However, I have been cooking a lot lately and really wanted to have my own herbs that I could use when I am cookin up dinner. We decided to take on the challenge of building our own box, getting the correct soil and liner, and planting our own seeds. We headed to home depot, and about 4 hours later (with the help of Dillan hammering) we had our box built, filled, and planted! I can't wait to see when everything starts to sprout up! We planted basil, cilantro, rosemary, parsley, and carrots! We also are growing tomatoes next to the box. So fun! Stay tuned to see if we have a successful harvest:)

Box is built, now time to sow the seeds!

All done:)

Can't WAIT to have fresh basil! YUM!
