When we moved into this house, we noticed this hole in the back cinderblock wall of our property.
It was filled with rocks and hardened cement bags and rubbish.
Mitch decided it would make an excellent planter box and so after clearing most of the debris out, we added some potting soil and had the kids help plant a few tomato plants.
Honestly, Anna's the only one that actually eats tomatoes, but since everyone was excited to plant SOMETHING, we decided to keep it simple and stick with a plant that we know is relatively easy to take care of. And so tomatoes it was.
They each took turns turning the soil and digging a hole for Mitch to insert the plant into.
Voila! Our very first little garden.
One day, hopefully we can have an actual garden with a bit more space and variety of herbs and vegetables...but for now, we are pretty happy with our little tomato plants.
