urban farming





z has been really excited about planting things this spring. he got some seeds as part of kids' meals from burgerville, so we had to plant those. we also found random packets of seeds around the house (one was from j & m's wedding!), so i bought some more large planters so all seeds could be planted & nurtured with love. what have we planted? nasturtiums, tomato (cherry & sungold), carrots, sugar snap peas (doing very well!), and some other random flowers.
z often is reluctant to get outside & play after naps, because it takes him a long time to wake up. the plants are a good motivator for him. he'll say he doesn't want to go outside, but once he's there, he doesn't want to come in!
