Papa Busy's Garden

This is Papa Busy.

Don't ask us why he's called Papa Busy, only Havah knows and she's not telling.
Papa Busy wants to grow a vegetable garden.
Building a garden is a big job though, so last night when he went out to side he brought the Helpers with him.

There's Momma Helper, Lilly Helper and Havah Helper.

Papa Busy and the Helpers measured and hammered and dug.


The Helpers saved friendly 'Snakes'.


while Papa Busy moved pavers and built paths.

And just as they finished their work for the day, the sun went down.
Watch out for more adventures from Papa Busy's Garden this summer.

**Note: We are trying the 'Square Foot Garden' method this year. Has anyone else tried it? If so, what did you think about it?**

  1. Thank you for sharing Papa Busy and his helpers. I adore saving the friendly snakes. What is a"Square Foot Garden?"

  2. We LOVE square foot gardening, we don't have to weed. We get weeds elsewhere in the yard, but not in the garden. It's a great way to have fresh produce as you are able to consume and keep manageable throughout the whole season. The mel mix is so rich in nutrients from the start that you just pretty much sit there and admire God's hand. It's quite a bit of work to get it started, but then it's easily maintained. I could not garden another way! I would ruin it, but this way works for someone like me who wants and NEEDS simplicity.
