Square foot gardening with mom and dad

Now you may think that dad did all the work on this little project, but I assure you...he did not! I bought some boards and had Lowe's cut them for him. I went and bought all the fertilizers and mixed most of it myself. Dad put the boxes together and we filled them. We now have spinach, strawberries, onions, and garlic planted. I am so excited about the garden. We will have garden benches in it as you can see by the pictures. We are still getting things organized for it. I hope for a good harvest and we will be planting more later.
