One Small Change Update and…Gardening!
My February One Small Change pledge was to use our cloth diapers more. Easy enough – consider it done! We’ve definitely been using those cloth diapers more, and thanks to the warmer weather, we’ve been using the clothes line to dry them too! We’ve also made progress on our January pledge to use more local foods – we got our first Basket A Month (BAM) CSA, which included bacon, turnip greens, cheese, honey, rice, sweet potatoes, milk, and butter – all grown and made locally! I also scored big when I met up with my blog buddy, The Park Wife, and she brought me 18 beautiful brown eggs fresh from her very own chickens!
Our March One Small Change is not so small – we’re planting a garden! Hubby is going to build us a raised garden bed and we’ll make our first ever attempt at growing our own vegetables, and maybe even a few herbs. We have no idea what we’re doing, but that’s what google is for. I’m excited to try this out, and to watch the kids have fun in the dirt!

You go with your garden! I am trying desperately to get one going again this year after two failed years. But even my neighbor is planning to throw in the towel this year. The squirrels and poor sunlight where we can PUT the garden just ruin it. 🙁
Kim, I think you should give it a go in the front yard, like you mentioned in your other comment. OR, do some container garden so you can move things to wherever the sun is…I wonder if there’s anything that grows well in shade? I have a friend here in town with the same problem.
