our tomato garden






A couple of months ago Jaylee came home from school with this little tomato plant and had learned about gardening that day. When we built our home six years ago I had this area set aside with curbing around it for a garden. Well six years later I finally have my garden. I cant take all the credit though....it helps that we own a landscaping company and I had one of our workers purchase and plant all my tomato plants equip with a drip system to each plant:) So a few months later and here we are celebrating our tomatoes. Now if I can just figure out how to keep the birds from enjoying them as well? Maybe a scare crow? The girls and I fight over these things, we LOVE tomatoes at our house! Put me in a tomato patch with a salt shaker and Id think Id died and gone to heaven. There is nothing better than a home grown tomato, store bought just doesnt compare....

It is so true, store bought just does not taste the same. Love our tomatoes too.
