Do you have a garden?

Nope no garden. I'm not even a big fan of shrubbery unless it is kept nice and tidy. I already have a list of bushes that have got to go at this house. I have tried vegetable gardens in the past but have had rabbit issues or was very pregnant. The kids want to do one this year and there are these wood frames on the side of the house with weed barrier and everything but I don't think it gets enough sun for veggies. I'm very allergic to plants/ weeds so my choices are breaking out in a rash or wearing long sleeves and gloves in summer. Very annoying because I'd love to grow some of our own food and know it isn't full of chemicals. All the stuff you are doing sounds great and really pretty.
