We just planted the salad and salsa container gardens in our wine barrel halves yesterday. Strawberries, peppers, tomatoes and marigolds went in. We're adding lettuce, cucumber, and green onions today and creating the troughs for our herb garden-cilantro, rosemary, basil, thyme, lemon balm, sage.
Our flower pots are filled and out around the house and I can't wait to prep our compost station next!
Pictures coming soon!...
