We Are Alive! August 18th, 2024 A Producing Garden

My family LOVES greenbeans!

I got out into the garden today and did a bunch of weeding and harvesting. I found lots of green beans on the bush, the more I pick, the more these plants produce!

Our red onions are growing, although the stalks are looking a little sad. I gave them a bunch of fresh compost, but I think I disturbed them when I was weeding a few days back.

Our green bean patch is producing the best among our veggies!

Our eggplants are growing! We harvested one a few days back, now we have two more getting ready for picking.

Our sweet potato vines are flurishing, I'm hoping there are lots of delicious sweet potatoes under the ground. I cut some of them back, so they can put their energy into the potatoes.

We found some sort of squash plant growing in our compost and we let it thrive. It's gotten VERY BIG and we identified it as a PUMPKIN plant!

Under the giant leaves, we see flowers forming. Eventually we'll see a pumpkin begin to grow, that'll be fun! It looks very healthy.

The sunflower is growing huge! We have two growing and one of them is beginning to dry out and form seeds.

A close up of the seeds.

The seeds are edible at this stage, they taste sort of like corn.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

Wow! The garden looks great! Did you know you can eat all parts of the sweet potato including the leaves and vines? We love growing sweet potatoes here because they are so versatile! Looks like you have a great harvest coming up!
