Moving into the new house has wonderful,six months in,the place looks completely different,much better I say...Like a real home,its never done,there is always another project to take on,some easier,some harder...
My vegetables are starting to ripe,last night I enjoyed spicy salsa with a juicy tomato from the garden,actually from a container,tasted so yummy!!I have bell peppers and green beans all coming all between this week and the next.What a pleasure,our Urban Farm is coming true.I have so much mint growing,I think this week I might make tea for the whole family,sweeten it with whats left of the Stevia,Angel our goat doggie,discovered the heavenly sweet flavor of Stevia and has been munching on it,she is a real dog,but we thing she is a cross between a goat and a piggy somewhere in there,she eats everything and anything,she is the baby,everything needs to be Angel proof here,Shadow knows better than to eat chocolate,or onions or garlic,and the long list of toxic dog foods,he is our first dog,much like the older child he just knows better,Angel like the second child,just gets into everything,she is a blessing,and a reminder that even when you think you are safe,really you have no idea,lol!!
I thought gardening this year I would worry about the raccoons and bunnies,but nothing gets left for them,Angel digs up the compost before anyone else gets a chance.I have been juicing in the morning,and that helps having something left to decompose in the compost pile,Angel likes the the pieces,and juicing grinds everything to a fine mash she doesnt care much for,the worms are thanking me,I just know it,although I think they have been another reason Angel digs up the compost,she has eaten a bag full of crickets,all it took was a couple minutes on the table,so the Bearded dragons had to eat greens only that night...
I looked at the broken pieces of wood that were holding my sweet potatoes and sighted as the dogs managed to snap the pieces in half,rip the wire and of course prance and chomp the leaves,I really gotta hit the hardware store and create another layer of protection,I wonder when it will be safe enough,specially when she realizes its sweet potatoes underground,lol,she really loves sweet potatoes,so here I am,working out strategies for gardening with my veggie loving dogs...
I just might build them their own doggie garden...

Hello Danielle,
Yes I think that your doggie does need his own garden. He sounds a bit like our cat Midnight who often digs up our garden or makes a mess of my new seeds sprouts if he wants something and I don’t pay enough attention to him. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day!
Smiles, Paula
