Provident Living - April

If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear. 

Provident Living Goal: If you normally do not grow a garden, plan to grow at least one vegetable this year. If you already have a garden, either 1) grow a vegetable you haven't tried before OR 2) Try a new method or technique this year.
If you look close, there are bees pollinating the flowers!

Storage Goal:

So glad I clicked through from Jocelyn's blog! I'm bookmarking this since we're working on building up our food storage.

I did a "gardening" post today; I like your provident living goal for April.
