:: potager garden


Welcome to my new & improved potager garden. 


The picture below is my end goal, and as you can see we have a ways to go. 


Here it is just the other day, via instagram.
 It's grown a lot in a few weeks, but as you can see I still have some bare spots to fill in.


 {  roma tomatoes }

 { squash }

{ cucumbers }

First fruits, I love this time of year.

How are your gardens coming along?

{peace, love & hugs}

  1. Your potager is coming along beautifully. I love your inspiration garden, too. My potager is just in the planning stages so you have really inspired me today. As for my garden...we have picked our first tomatoes and cucumbers, radishes and green onions. The corn is tall and the snap peas are coming along fine.

    1. Wow, sounds like your garden is really taking off, and what a variety. I still have lots of planting to do, and I got a bit of a late start this year. Oh well, I'm already planning for my fall garden, as this summer is getting away from me. : )

    1. Thanks Diane, it's going well so far though I could definitely put more time in. I especially love my chairs because my father made them for me. Take Care,Carrie

  4. I love your potager! I think your have the same adirondacks that we do or they are very similar. We bought ours at Costco about 12 yrs ago and they were handmade by the Amish. I love them. Our Potager is growing too. I've been picking squash and stir frying with almonds and fresh parmesan in olive oil...so good. You have alot of land.

    1. I love my adirondacks too. My father built them for me as a Christmas gift many years ago. I keep telling him he could make them to sell, they are so nice. I'll have to try your idea for squash, that sounds delicious. We do have a good bit of land, almost 2.5 acres. Hopefully someday I'll have all of it in use with gardens, chickens & sheds, maybe even some goats & sheep...little by little, all of that takes quite a bit of time & money : ). Take Care, Carrie

  13. My "garden" consists of several pots on my front porch with flowers that I have kept alive for over a year. This is HUGE progress! It is also about moving from Arizona to California. I'm thinking of potting some vegetables and you have inspired me.

    I found you in my mailbox ... in Romantic Homes. A lovely find, indeed.

    Thanks ~ Mary
