Don't be fooled...

Transplants are like magic. One day, there was barely anything growing in the garden, and the next, it's full of 18 inch peppers and tomatoes. Are we suddenly gardening masters who have figured out how to make mature plants grow overnight? No, those are indeed the transplants that we delivered last week from New Jersey. However! The most exciting thing (so far) this week is that the seeds that were sowed last week by the fleet of volunteer gardeners at one of the evening work days are now starting to appear! Upon our visit to the garden yesterday to do some much needed watering, we noticed tons of beans, carrots, radishes, cucumbers, and okra beginning to sprout out of the soil. So begins the lives of the first plants sowed directly at Roots of Peace! Excitement abounds.
