A Peek Into Our Garden {Tiny Tip Tuesday}

Happy Tuesday all!

Unfortunately, as you can tell by how late this post is going out, I don’t actually have a Tiny Tip for you this week. :( It’s been a hectic week as we prepare to travel this weekend to visit our family in Florida for 2 weeks! It will be Baby Y’s first real plane ride (aside from the one he took at 6 months, but he doesn’t remember that one, of course!), and he’ll finally be able to meet all those familiar faces that he sees on Skype every week – very exciting!

Instead of sharing a Tiny Tip with you this week, I did want to give you a peek into our raised bed garden. We set it up 2 weeks ago and it’s looking mighty fine, if I do say so myself!

Here, we have 2 kinds of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and spinach.

And here, we have radishes, baby carrots, chives, basil, cilantro, parsley, nasturtiums (edible flowers), and strawberries on the end.

Remember my celery stalk stump from last week? Here's the new growth! It'll be planted in a container later this week.

That’s a little peek into our edible garden. I’m going to try to give an update every few weeks or so, so keep a look out for that! I hate that we’ll be leaving the garden for 2 whole weeks! But we’ve set up a soaker hose on a timer to take care of watering, and we’ll have someone check up on it a few times while we’re gone.

Have you had to leave your precious garden for an extended period of time? What did you do to ensure that it stayed strong and healthy? Any tips, suggestions, comments are welcome below!
