Our new raised garden beds have brought pure joy into our gardening life. We recently introduced our Custom Raised Garden Beds and we are really having great results. I am very excited to share our first spring harvest with all of you.

I was so excited to have a harvest already. I got sweet banana peppers and a nice bunch of basil. I used my basil in several different recipes, it was so nice to have fresh basil. I am so grateful to get some sweet banana peppers, I am freezing as many as I can, I need them for my
 Garden to Table Canned Salsa.

My husband snapped this photo of me harvesting the vegetables. I did not bring my harvest basket to the garden area. I was using the bottom of my shirt, just exactly the way my Grandmother did when I would go to the garden with her. The last time I went to the garden with my Grandmother she was in her late 80's and I will be 87 in July.

My husband Leonard, what a guy! He has been working on re-setting the flagstone on this patio for about 3 years. In between all that, he recovered from several medical issues, plus a placement of a heart pacemaker. We are very close to moving the furniture back on the patio.
 We hope to use it again on Memorial Day.

Thanks so much for stopping by the garden to spend some time with us. Perhaps there is a photo here that will inspire you to grow some beautiful vegetables and or flowers in your yard. Have a fantastic week and come back to see us real soon!
Peace and Joy
