If I put that on my screensaver at work, people would ask me if that was my garden, ha. <br /><br />How cool would it be to have a garden that so many people want to put up an image of as an inspiration for themselves? Of course, sometimes the farm seems so overwhelming to me and I see all of y'alls beautiful gardens and yards and it's inspiring to me to get things done.1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-78016852841752242892012-05-11T10:08:34.386-05:002012-05-11T10:08:34.386-05:00Absolutely!!!

I did a little more surfind and found out this garden of hers is 90'x55'. She said in an article that it was just barren, rocky dirt when she had it fenced in. She thought it would overwhelm her at first (I can relate). But she soon filled every square inch and wanted more, ha. I'm thinking I need to start working the ground in our spot, and then fence it in and start from there, a few raised beds at a time. I think that's a great way of doing it. Stick around, you'll see something appear, slowly but surely! ha.1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-5878586887876883852012-05-11T09:49:36.976-05:002012-05-11T09:49:36.976-05:00Oh my gosh that's too funny!

It was an inspiration to me but I realized the fence had to be more efficient at keeping out critters. If you look at photos of my veg garden you will see I did keep it in mind.

Looking forward to the day when you are posting photos of your version of this wonderful space.The Happy Hippyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04511742760342592785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-72676007389802930702012-05-10T17:47:16.583-05:002012-05-10T17:47:16.583-05:00Ha!

Also looks like they have some sort of additional fencing to keep out rabbits & such. (If you have deer though they'll jump that easy.) Wish I had the TIME to have a garden!
