Gardening with the Family (Step 1. Planning)
We all want our children to grow up to be adults that make healthy eating choices,right? Well,lets start discussing the type of veggies we would like to grow,and what jobs and duties each family member will have ( it'll be great to write a list and/or draw a plan: simple blue print.) For those of you who took our challenge and tried out a garden for the first time last year, try developing a new plan around what worked and why it worked. Even what didn't work and why it didn't work should play a part in developing a new plan. For our family, the discussion will also include how we can make our garden even better than last years garden. So, in your down time or around the dinner table ask the kids what kind of vegetable they would like to plant this year and let the planning begin!
Please feel free to send pictures, and post your comments. We would love for you to take the journey with us.
