Love this, Jen! We had a large garden at our last home, but haven't made the time to create a space in our new home yet. One of the first #projectbasedlearning assignments I gave my boys (ages 6 and 8) was to research, design, measure, and build a raised bed for a garden. I'm proud to say we finished building the raised bed last weekend. We also started tomatoes, peppers, and marigolds indoors for planting in a month or so. We planted the seeds in cardboard egg cartons and then placed them in rotisserie chicken boxes and as mini greenhouses. One of our favorite memories from our last garden was digging potatoes and carrots with a 2 year old and, there's something about growing the vegetables that makes them more appetizing to kids!
