Well, we took a cue from a family we greatly admire...namely the Brock's and we have begun not only the physical preparations for our garden but the spiritual as well. We will be planning out our garden for the next 3 family home evenings. We've actually planted the peas - The USU extension has proven a wonderful resource as well as the following websites:
http://www.mysquarefootgarden.net/
http://urbanext.illinois.edu/firstgarden/index.html - This is a great site to help get the kids involved in the planning, planting, and harvesting!

The plan is to update our blog weekly on our progress, successes, challenges and the things we learn so we can use this information for our future gardens.
We have felt such a peace in this project...more to come soon!

I love it!! Thanks for the websites! I am going to check them out... We have built the first of 4 raised beds in our backyard--you'd think we'd just built Disneyland in our backyard--the kids are thrilled! So glad you are doing this with us this year, and that you're going to be posting on these things--you will keep us motivated! Miss you! C
