Gardening with my boys!!


I have just had a lovely afternoon in the vegetable garden with my two big boys. We have been planting carrots and beans. The boys love carrots and to make planting easier we have used seed tapes. These are niffty paper tapes which have seeds imbedded into them. Makes for easy handling for little hands. The idea is to lay seed tape along ground, cover lightly with soil and firm in.

The boys have also planted butter bush beans. They love to munch on these beans thoughout the day. It is great to be in the garden with the kids. It is amazing how much knowledge they soak up just watching me potter around. I hope their interest in growing things stays with them for ever!!
