3 YEARS OF GARDENING👩‍🌾🥗 realistic progress in a small garden 🥬

As if finding a balance in life through work, school, and art wasn’t enough, I made the lovely decision to throw a garden into the mix!! I’m here sharing the progress I’ve had with growing vegetables in a small garden space over 3 years. The third year does look sparse in the video but trust me I did have a great harvest of tomatoes and cucumbers by the end of the summer (I was away on a trip and didn’t film - oops lol). I love my garden’s growth, no matter how slow, and I look forward to creating beautiful paintings of my planting arrangements 👀 I feel very lucky that my partner is handy (and is the best at helping the vision come to life!) and could help me build the planters, so if you need help, it won’t hurt to ask around your community! Planter pots or gardening bags also work well, but I preferred a solid planter. This video is not meant to be a how-to/informative gardening vlog because I am extremely new, but I thought it would be nice to share how things have progressed in my tiny garden.
