Life of the Party

       This is my current progress in the "tire" garden. I know it isn't what you expected, but it has come a long way.    Currently, I have planted two green bean tires, and one squash.  Hopefully, this futile idea succeeds.        I didn't want to use any special dusting poisons to keep the bugs at bay, but now I'm considering this. I'm somewhat determined to show that I can grow plants.  Its actually funny to hear what my family says.  "She couldn't grow a normal garden, so she took over the back yard!"   This is how all my planting starts out. There are plantable starter pots designed to help make things easier.  You can purchase these at your local dollar store. This way you'll know that the plants have a chance inside before they brave the ridged life outside.  

I have the most fabulous commute to work every morning.   I'm thankful for the time alone!   Singing at the top of my lungs is a great way to start a stressful day!    

They are mentors who guide us through life. They are believers, deceivers, and dreamers. They are the boo boo kissers, and they are the other sisters. Mothers are helping hands who pass on loving traits. Mothers are the ones who open those imaginary gates. Mothers are the peanut butter to your jam. Mothers are the ones who make sure you are glam. They are hand holders, and shrugging shoulders. They are cooks, Who spend hours reading you books. Mothers set examples and follow them through. Mothers are the first to say boo. 

             Wow!  This farming season I have decided to use old tires to farm in. I will be showing a progression of this project throughout the summer.  Every year I have tried to be motivated about farming, but the result is the same, failure or lack of interest.  I think my generation has lost touch with reality. We cannot provide for ourselves without grocery stores, and honestly, I think this is our down fall.         I saw this project summer challenge. I live near a junk yard and decided to take it on. Below I have shared my first instillation of hopefully many tires. Unfortunately, being in a small rural town has somewhat limited my resources. I have only located two tires, and will have to resort to using regular car tires.  This is  a green bean patch. I gathered my seeds from my grandma. She saves seeds every year and replants them. The darkened potting soil is a mixture of horse manure ...
