fruits of our labors

We wanted to do a bigger garden this year, especially more corn. So Duke plowed up some of the horse pasture and planted the whole thing in sweet corn. Here's Wyatt out hoeing away. Here's Wyatt again in the corn patch hoeing and watering. He's such a good farmer. The corn is growing bigger every day thanks to good soil, good water, sun shine, Wyatt and Heavenly Father.

Thumbs up!! The corn is ready and we're so excited to taste it. It's turned out so good that Duke and Wyatt want to grow a whole field of it next year.

Here's Wyatt and his best friend Aaron (who helped pack all this stuff down stares after the picture was taken) showing off the peaches, green beans, pickles and corn we put up.

It's was alot of work to put up all this food, and messy, but it sure is worth it and it feels great knowing it's there for you when you need it. This is only part of what we did and we're still not done. Apples are next. YEA!!!
