Growing A Pizza Garden

We love to eat fresh vegetables and herbs right out of our garden. We are currently working with four rectangular planted boxes to grow a delicious pizza garden.  We first filled the planters with a hearty mix of compost and garden soil and each family member got to choose a favorite topping to grow.


Head on over to The Homeschool Classroom to see what we planted.

Strawberry Patch

We have been doing our schooling outside these past 2 weeks, really digging into nature. My girls  thrive in the outdoors and always find something new to explore. We visited a local strawberry patch with Olive's Daisy troop and picked 11 pounds! We made some yummy jam, baked oatmeal, and strawberry crisp. It was a super hot day, but a lot of fun.

How does your garden grow?

My girls love, love, love, to be in the garden. Usually we have a big raised bed, but this year we just did a few planters with tomatoes, peppers, and basil. We love to watch anything grow!
