Jax loves anything that grows from the ground. Today we planted some herb and veggie seedlings I bought yesterday. We put some into pots and few into the raised bed garden. I am not much of a gardener. I hoped that it was in my genes because my grandpa was a farmer in Missouri before moving to LA in the Dirty Thirties (AKA the dust bowl). On his double city lot on Century Blvd he raised flowers, fruits, and veggies and even kept rabbits. {I found out the hard way at dinner one night when I was three what the rabbits were really for.}
Unlike my grandpa’s green thumb, mine is brown but I am ever optimistic that something will grow! I am hoping that my grandkids will be able to see where some of their food comes from as our plants grow. But even if my garden fails {again} at least we have had some fun outside playing in the dirt!
To bad your grandpa didn't pass down his lot on Century. That's prime real estate! :) Love you are starting a new blog.
