Becoming One With The Earth.

We live in some pretty ghetto student housing apartments - full of leaks, mold, and apparently asbestos. There are some great perks though. We have a park right outside our house and we have a spot where we can have garden plots. For only a $5 fee we signed our for our tiny, tiny plot. On Saturday we got some plants and seeds and then headed over to our garden to plant them.
Az-man and Cam were a lot of help- and had a lot of fun.

On of our tomato plants that is sure to bring us luscious fruit!


The garden is behind chain link to keep any vagrants (aka kids) out...



We also have an awesome manhole cover in the middle of our garden...
hopefully it doesn't make our vegetables radioactive!

We planted tomatoes, bell pepper, zucchini, some other squash, carrots, lettuce, green beans, and sunflowers. SO glad that spring has finally shown her face in Utah!
