As most of you know - Tren and I are pretty much professional gardners. I'm just sayin...
Me personally, I am a little obsessed! Gardening is my out, my alone time when I gather my thoughts and just chill not to mention the incredible tan I get from spending hours playing in the mud.
With the warm weather coming (well, every now and then). Tren and I decided to take advantage of a somewhat warm day before football season starts. We went to the dump and got a truck load compost! (yep, I know, it's beautiful)

We have really worked hard at getting our awful Riverton soil to a point to where things will grow.
Tren working hard - isn't he hansom?
We finished off the day tilling in our new compost! I gotta say, our garden is going to be incredible this year!
Our goal....
*Bottle salsa and spagetti sauce since we go through both like water.
*Freeze lots of corn and as many peppers as our freezer can hold.
*Make freezer jam with all our strawberries. (Tren had never heard of freezer jam until a couple days ago.....sheesh)
*And indulge in fresh, organic veggies all summer and fall.
Let the planting begin......
How fun! Ben and I really want to do a garden this year too! We made freezer jam last year and will be doing it again this year, we made strawberry and a couple strawberry/mango. So yummy!
