    Meet Sweet Pea Sam!


    Posted at 10:50 am by Sarah Jackson

    Well, it doesn’t get much better than this: Sam, my 1-year-old kid, has fallen in love with sugar snap peas.

    His new favorite thing is to grab them off the vines and crunch them with his two bottom teeth. He also loves to eat the shelled peas.

    I can’t believe I was worried he’d be a junk food addict. Next year, I’m going to plant 1,000 peas. Of course, by then he’ll have found something else, right?

    Would you like to share some kids-in-the-garden photos? Send them to me here along with some information about what's going on in them, and I’ll post them.

    Also, here’s a cool blurb about a book on veggie gardening with kids and best crops to choose for fast results.

    Happy gardening, Parents!
