Upside-down tomatoes

So we figured out a few ways to fit some veggies into our yard. After all, you can't eat grass. (Well, you could.....) We are giving the upside-down tomatoes a try! We put peppers in the top too. If you don't know what this is, do a search and you'll be surprised! Our home teacher told us about it on Sunday when we were trying to figure out if tomatoes or a sandbox were more important. (I know, this is the question we all struggle with) We'll see how it does. If it doesn't work, who doesn't need a bunch of 5 gallon buckets with holes drilled in the bottoms?





Oh, and we planted our peas and carrots as well. Butternut squash and Jack-be-little pumpkins will also go into this one. I think the rest of the tomatoes, cilantro, and flowers will go out front in the flower gardens. DH also rigged up some hoses/sprinklers and we watered our lawn for the first time! I was wondering why everyone else's was so green and ours was brown. Now I know.
