Blue Ribbon Kitchen: 20 Inspiring Backyard Garden Ideas!

I'm officially, 100% ready for spring.

I think this feeling may have happened

oh, ...somewhere during the kiddos 7th or 8th day off...

...in a row ...from school last week.

We finally got the long awaited "big" snowfall...

...and finally...with temperatures that made it safe to play outdoors...

From the look of the snow piled up in our yard...

...it may be a few weeks until we thaw out.

While I wait for the snow to melt, I have something to daydream about...

...the backyard garden.

Our garden may be covered in snow, and frozen... for now...

but, not too much longer, and it will be buzzing with activity.

ha... (Get it? I thought you might like my photo-pun)

I did a blog post last February about how we built our backyard garden...
...and how it's grown over the years.

It was quite the DIY event...

We used a tool I nicknamed "the team builder"...

It was a loooong afternoon in the heat....to say the least...

It's a good story and one of my favorite blog-posts to date.

If you'd like to learn about the "team builder"... and

see some sunny and warm garden 'how-to' photos...

just visit the earlier post here: Growing A Garden

As I get ready for this years garden,

I found mountains of inspiration over on Hometalk.com

I curated a board of inspiring garden ideas...

...Some of which I hope to create for our garden, this March.

So many great ideas for all types of gardens,

flower gardens, vegetable gardens,

water and fairy gardens and so much more.

I even included a few garden planter ideas for the yard.
