Growing in small spaces

&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Well&comma; of course I dream of someday living in the country with a huge vegetable garden and some chickens&period; The problem is I also love being close to the city&period; With endless amounts of amazing restaurants and shops close by&comma; it would be hard to say goodbye&period; Sometimes it’s a little too convenient&comma; but so welcoming&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">I do like the challenge of growing what I can on my little plot of land&period; It isn’t much&comma; just a small city lot&period; But I still feel like you can grow what you want&comma; if you utilize what you have&period; The same concept goes for your house&period; Utilize what have&period; Who says you need something huge&period; For me&comma; it has to be a place that is inspiring and somewhat magical&period; I guess that’s why I love old houses&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Long ago&comma; we didn’t have much of a growing area&period; Mainly planted in pots on our deck&period; But that all changed when we cut down a tree on our side yard&period; It was a tree that always dropped truck loads of sticks every year&period; It just got to be too much&period; Thankfully our neighbor agreed it needed to go&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">After the tree was gone it opened up our new vision for our growing area&period; We started small adding a couple raised bed planters from reused wood&period; After our first year&comma; we discovered our love for growing vegetables and it grew from there&excl;&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"aligncenter wpcnt">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"wpa">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<span class&equals;"wpa-about">Advertisements<&sol;span>&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"u inline">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<amp-ad width&equals;"300" height&equals;"265"&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;

it seems like we are adding another planter box or something we can plant in&period; We even created a upfront garden &lpar;garden in front of my front landscaping&rpar; it required a ton sod removal on my part&period; I was really hoping for a pumpkin patch in the front&comma; but unfortunately no pumpkins&period; We didn&&num;8217&semi;t stick to companion planting in that garden and we didn&&num;8217&semi;t see much success&period; My guess is there was also an issue with the soil&period; Next year we’ll have to bring in some better soil&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">That&&num;8217&semi;s the thing with gardening&period;

just do it&excl; Even if your limited on space&period; What do you have to lose&quest; Maybe some stress relieving fun&quest; A new found hobby or even some food to eat&quest; I think that all sounds pretty great&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">❤️April <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph"><&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"aligncenter wpcnt">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"wpa">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<span class&equals;"wpa-about">Advertisements<&sol;span>&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<div class&equals;"u inline">&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;&Tab;<amp-ad width&equals;"300" height&equals;"265"&NewLine;&Tab;&Tab;
