Kids are on the board

As we have done in the past, Wifey and I are sectioning off part of the main garden for each of the kids.  As with the past, we have told the kids we will provide them with some plants (ideally of their choosing) to grow.  We will support them and help them with the garden, but the responsibility is theirs.

All three kids have their gardens at least started.

The Boy has some peppers, basil, and cherry tomato in the ground.  He would like more flowers which we will try to get this weekend.

The Bruiser (our youngest) being still quite young has a smaller garden area (at least so far).  He has a bell pepper, a cherry tomato, and a squash growing.

The Girl wanted hers to be partially under the Japanese maple.  Because parts of that area had been used for Spring planting, we weeded it out.  I was going to roto-till that area, but she was interested in keeping some lettuce (from this year).  She also wanted to keep some volunteer tomatoes from last year to see what they are and how they do.  We planted basil, a bell pepper, and a cherry tomato there.  As with her big brother, she wants flowers which we will be getting this weekend.
