Little Garden | My Garden Journal

Hello.
I've been away from here for a few days. I had a little flu, luckily now I'm all right. After fixing it, we made a garden with my mother in the empty space at the back of our building. I want to tell you a little bit about that today.

First of all, I want to tell you about our garden. We lived in a big city before we moved here. There was not much garden space there except for houses and tall buildings. We could not have a garden because it is a metropolis. My mother and I always dreamed of having our own house with a garden. If we cannot achieve this fully, we have achieved some of it. Maybe we couldn't buy a detached house, but we moved to a small city full of greenery. It is a very good feeling for me to eat fruit from a tree on the way to the market here. Not being able to encounter such a thing in the big city always saddened me, but it is very nice to experience them here. We bought a duplex house on the 3rd floor of a 4-storey building. We could not buy a detached house, but a duplex with a terrace seemed like a detached to us.

There was an earthen garden at the back of the building we moved to. We decided to build a garden here with the consent of our neighbors. I have never planted seedlings in the ground in my life. I was quite inexperienced in these matters. The local people here are very good and the first year planting seedlings helped us a lot. Thanks to them, we ate the products we planted for the first time. It was an indescribable feeling to consume vegetables from our own seedlings.

The picture you see above was before you cleaned the garden. It was full of weeds and stones. We cleaned all of them one by one with our hands. We didn't have many tools as we had no previous experience. Of course, a few tools such as shovel, rake, hoe were necessary. Over time, we bought these from local markets.
