Though we love our apartment, it can have its disadvantages. The biggest being no yard. No yard equals no garden. And for a couple who is creating a brand based on gardening that doesn't really look good for us. Luckily we have great family who offers us their land, in return for fresh vegetables, of course.
Today was especially exciting because we got to get the lay of the land, so to speak. I got to check out the place that Andrew grew up around, and that we get to grow food with. Let me tell you, it is beautiful. But if you don't believe me I took pictures as evidence.
If you look closely there is a beautiful view! You have to admit, Maine is a pretty cool place (I say that because the snow is finally gone).
Now, it is definitely a work in progress. Over the next couple of weeks we will be raking and tilling, getting the land ready to plant our seedlings that we showed off last week. But it is so much more than we expected to have when we started this idea, and we are so grateful.
Not only have we upgraded our garden space but we have upgraded to buildings as well! Here is what we have in mind.
We have a miniature greenhouse in our apartment, we have access to a little green room off site, so we decided why not have a greenhouse right here! Lucky for us, there was already one there. So with some tender, love and care this will be just that! But that's not all. There is one more building we will be putting to good use.
It's adorable, I know. And though we haven't 100% decided what we will use it for just yet you know that we will keep you posted. I mean, we can't reveal everything or it wouldn't be a journey and learning experience!
The only true thing I can reveal is how excited we are, and that we have A LOT of work ahead. Of course we bring you guys along every step of the way.
