Building A Garden

Mimi, Mama and I worked together with Baba to close up his half year project, building a garden in our front yard. Starting from last year, Baba has been working on the construction of the foundation, building bricks frame and leveraging the land with tons of soil.

We went to a nearby place, River's Edge Garden Center, to select the herbs and flowers for the garden. Mimi searched this place online the day before, which was the Mother's day. Then, we went out to eat dinner to celebrate the Mother's day. In the restaurant, a lady sat at a table beside us started a conversation with us. What a coincidence!  We found out that she is one of the owners of the River's Edge Garden Center. There she was! She was in blue shirt in this picture.

 

Pull, pull, pull. You got to use all your muscles.

 

Mimi and Baba were getting advices on what to buy.

What a beautiful combination!

We almost finished. Mimi dragged a full of pots in her wagon. My wagon was still sort of empty. However, I helped.

Here is our garden. Still need 10 more bags of soil to leverage the land.

Mimi and Baba, you need to water the plants, right?

Tens of herbs have been planted by Mimi, Mama and Baba. Those included rosemary, basel, thyme, sage, savory and marjoram.

Not only Mimi helped us to build the garden in the front yard, she also made a small flower garden in pots for our deck.
