Each summer, I usually do a few posts about our garden and how much work Jeremy does to make it so amazing - but this year he decided to "rest" the soil as is recommended by the gardening world and even the Bible talks about growing for 6 years then resting on the 7th. This year was that year! And thankfully so, because it would have been a hard summer trying to keep up with two babies and have Jeremy out tending the garden each night. So instead of growing the whole garden, he continued to improve his greenhouse growing skills. The only plant he continued to grow outside in the garden this year was potatoes.
green pepper
hungarian yellow peppers
tomatoes
pickling cucumbers
(Though he also grew regular cucumbers... but they were all harvested at this point.)
red and white potatoes
He also grew a yummy assortment of herbs including basil, parsley, and lavendar.
Until next year when we hope to have the full garden in full swing...

AHHHHHH...you guys are AMAZING! I need to give you a call and cryonyourshoulderimeanaskyousomequestions. :) We have a mess going on over here. Not sure what to do, but "resting the soil" is probably going to be in order.
OOoohhh, those look yummy! What wonderful varieties of food you have. Jeremy is doing a great job on his green house. I don't blame you for waiting on the garden for another year. Yes, the Bible does tell us to rest the soil for a year after six years of planting, plowing and harvesting. I learned that while studying the Life of Moses in my Bible Study group a couple years ago.
In Christ,
