the garden

I used to grow peas and cucumbers on the windowsill in my tiny city apartments. The plants got long and pale with small leaves and deformed fruits from lack of space, light and nutrition. I promised myself that one day, somehow, I will find a real garden to care for. Here it is;

The fruit trees in our garden are probably almost 100 years old. The most beautiful one is a big cherry tree, blooming spectacularly in spring. Now, the cherries are ripening, but the birds eat them all. We also have red and black currants, apple trees, blueberries, raspberries and stikkelsbær.

My first project in this garden was a small vegetable bed. I promised myself to keep it simple this year as the two minis need most of our time. But - we have lots of coriander, parsley, dill, lettuce, carrots, peas, radishes and calendula that managed to help themselves quite good with just a minimum of care.

there are lots of strange flowers, and big old trees to love forever.
