DIY Raised Garden [part 2]
We went ahead and planted some veggies the other day. We planted cherry tomatoes, "Mr. Stripey" heirloom tomatoes, giant marconi peppers, bell peppers, Jalapeños, banana peppers , and also cilantro, sage, basil and thyme.
These were already started plants. We also picked out a bunch of plants that we can start from seeds that we are thinking about planting soon. Hopefully its not too late!

Turning on the water. We are storing the rain water that is coming from off the roof and out the gutter in one of our rain barrels. It is supposed to be much better than hose water for the plants.
Watering the garden plants. Tomatoes, peppers and herbs. We connected a hose to our rain barrel and ran the hose out to the garden. It worked great for water pressure since the garden is downhill from the rain barrel.
