Planting our Seeds!















What a fun project! First, we went to the Dervaes (freedomseeds.org) to pick up the seeds that we ordered. We had also bought some seeds at Armstrong. (botanicalinterests.com) I highly recommend Freedom Seeds because they are a small family-owned business and for us, they are local (and super-nice!)

We made some signs to identify our seeds and then we got planting. We filled our peat pots with some good potting soil and then planted our seeds! I am so amazed by seeds-- that something so tiny can carry all the information necessary to grow into a huge plant that produces wonderful vegetables, fruits, and flowers! How can anyone not believe in God? What an amazing Creator. And at this time when we celebrate the resurrection of the Savior, what a beautiful symbol of the resurrection--a dormant seed that comes alive! As we planted, we talked about this. We are soooooooo excited for our seeds to sprout!

Giggle, giggle...I love the photo of your little one with the seed pot on her head. Too cute!
