This spring we made a keyhole garden: small manageable and fun... and we have been eating salad from it forever... while the rest of the garden does its own thing we have this little patch producing lettuce, tomatoes, celery and so on... with just enough maintenance for kids to keep it going.

I can't wait to share it with others. We have a little backyard and my little person and I had a minigarden this summer (mostly tomatoes that are still hanging on) and I'm excited to be more ambitious next year. And I get the allure of the play structure...there is something so lovely about a swing...I have hopes of someday living somewhere with a large tree to hang a swing from and room to let us grow lots of things to eat.
