One of my many Seed Catalog |
I had to laugh, as I got into hubby's truck, I found my first Seed Catalog for the season, and it came after I made my goals for 2013! Way for God to keep me on track! This year I have many goals ad want a lot out of the garden, which in turns means I need to but a lot into it! Here is what I have planned for next year!
Gardening Goals For 2013
2.
Grow a 1,000 lbs. of food- I want to be able t say my garden
with feed me and my family! I watch a blogger grow 2,000 lbs. so it is doable,
but I think 1,000 for this year because I’m a weekend gardener!
3.
Get Bees- Hubby and I have talked about bees and the benefits to
have them. Their honey, beeswax, and they will pollinate the garden. Honey bees
are a struggling to live because of people killing them with pesticides but we
need them to take care of our plants and flowers!
4.
Plant more Trees- I’m going to get 2 peach trees from my aunt, I
put away $100 for 2 orange trees, and a pear. I’m also going to join the Arbor Foundation
and get 10 trees for $10.
5.
Plant a new fruit- I have told hubby that I want different types
of fruit bushes around the house. Fruit is so expensive, and if I can provide
my family with flirt it is less money in the end I pay for! Last year I put in
two blueberry bushes. This year I would like to put in 2 pink lemonade bushes.
That gives me 5 blueberry bushes; I think that would be enough for my little
one.
Hubby was teasing me this morning while I was
looking though the catalog saying I looked like a kid in a candy store! I
smiled at him and told him I was, but all the candy was health fruits and
vegetables for our family!
