Beginner Gardner

I am officially a Beginner Gardner!

A month or so ago the MSU Extension Center held a class on Gardening. I was one of a 100 + participants to attend. Since the class Chad and I have been discussing building a raised bed. We made plans to do it this past weekend. Before we decided what materials we were going to use I got a call from the local paper - The Daily Journal. I was interviewed as a beginner Gardner. Sunday was a big day for us: My interview was featured on the Front Page of the Newspaper and Chad built my Raised Bed. Now we have to fill it will soil and finish our planting plan.

Below is a picture of my Raised Bed. I can't wait to plant!
