The Garden Variety





"Boy, Mamaw, you sure are saving a TON of money on food this summer!" The boys were excited to be helping pick vegetables in the backyard garden and couldn't help but think how much money must be being saved. Truth is, having a backyard garden isn't exactly free when you pay for all the plants, seeds, fence materials, tiller rental fee, new tiller (after you decide it is too expensive to rent one) and all the TIME involved. But, the vegetables are tastier if you ask me and it is so much fun to watch them grow. Not to mention the great learning experience for the kids and the knowledge that your food does not contain salmonella!
