Themissiah's Missy and Tripp Season 2008 garden

Created on Monday, 18 Feb 08

This is our first garden in our new home in Ringgold, Georgia. We use only organic seeds and organic gardening practices. At some point, we would like to practice permaculture, excusively, but now is not the time. We also compost, which is a great way to reduce waste – as most of you probably know.
