Eat your veggies!

Since having pku means I eat a lot of fruit and veggies I have really taken an interest in growing my own .

For the past 2 years I have quit successful gardens . With inspiration drawing from my mother in law and my sister in law. My mother in law Tracy has the largest garden I have ever seen. It’s half an acer and she grows everything !! I love harvest time at the Rickett ranch. During the summer we get most of our produce from her. I grow at home just what we eat on a daily basis. Salad essentials .

These are some of my seedlings I started inside in April. Ready for transplantation to the outdoor garden this week.

These are tomatoes , broccoli , peppers , onions , pees, celery and asparagus.

I start these seeds in doors and when the ground is ready outside I plant lettuce , carrots , beans , cucumber , radishes ,beats and more. I also planted potatoes this year. They are doing fabulous! !

There is nothing like growing your own food . Knowing exactly what it takes and what is in it. To dig in the earth and make these seeds grow into food.
