We picked our first green pepper yesterday! It is so cute and perfect! Green peppers were surprisingly easy to grow, which is a huge blessing to the newbie over here! Karis was delighted to be able to help mommy pick it! The tomatoes are coming along nicely as well…we will definitely have an abundance! Praise the Lord for the amazing ability to grow some of our own food even in limited space on the deck!

How awesome. So glad to hear that your deck garden is doing well. We have a little patio garden ourselves, but unfortunately it is not doing as well as yours. I even killed our basil, though I’m still trying to figure out how I managed that.
Enjoy all that yummy, homegrown goodness!
WhaT A BEAUTIFUL pepper!
Oh wow, what a great pepper. I have always been to chicken to try peppers.
What adorable pics!
Oh my gosh, that baby is soooo cute!!
AHH!
You’re green pepper does look fabulous, how are the tomatoes coming? I have at least 10 juicy green mounds hanging off the branches, but my cherry tomato is not fairing as well as I’d hoped.

I just wanted to tell you that I recently finished reading through your entire blog (started at the beginning). I enjoyed so much of what I read and have already implemented some natural homemaking ideas into my routine.
Thank you for sharing your ministry of homemaking with us! You are a joy to read!
Congrats on the garden! Starting small is a good idea. That way you won’t be overwhelmed and can still keep up with your harvests.

Your pepper looks great! You are doing a good thing. I truly believe that if little ones are involved in the process of growing food they are much more open to eating it!
