Had some fun a few weeks ago planting these pea plants out in the garden and am just getting around to posting about it. This is the follow up post to Planting Peas – Part 1 that I posted early on this spring!
Teaching kids where food comes from is important in my family. Growing up my parents and grandparents always had gardens and grapevines. My parents raised chickens and we got eggs. They raised goats and we got cheese. They raised a cow each year and each year we filled our freezer with meat. With my kids we will start with peas, soon we will be planting my little patch of garden with tomatoes, cucumbers and squash. And my pear tree is looking promising too!
Lucas loved digging in the dirt. He especially loved his Mickey Mouse gardening gloves and gardening tools!
I love that he is learning where food comes from!
Alaina had lots of fun too!
We will keep you posted!
