Okay guys. Let’s talk gardens. And gardening while pregnant. Number one. The next baby I’m going to have will not be when a pandemic is happening. Not that that can be planned but that would be my preference. And number two, maybe not being so pregnant during gardening season. I dubbed this year as the weedy Garden of Eden. We do the Back to Eden Gardening Method which worked fantastic for us last year.

If you’re not familiar it is a no till gardening method where you lay cardboard down, then 4-6 inches of compost then 4-6 inches of wood chips. We had a great first garden last year with tons of produce! This year we were supposed to add another layer of compost and another layer of wood chips. The problem was I felt too guilty making Jayson and my dad doing all of the work, so I didn’t add the extra layers. And because of that weeds have been crazy this year. And weeding while almost 8 months pregnant?! Are y’all crazy! Pulling one weed is hard enough yet alone doing the whole garden.
