We’ve been working on a bunch of projects here at the Whearley household over the past few months. One project that is near and dear to my heart is replacing planting areas in our front yard with more water-wise plants as part of a long-term plan to eventually replace the entire lawn. Check out our first phase of the project!

Your front yard is your house’s first impression. It’s the first thing you see when you come home every day and like any greeting it can really set the tone. A garden full of flowers is a sweet hello. I really believe that, which is why I hate to confess, our yard looks pretty terrible right now.

The temperature is getting warmer and the days are getting longer, which means it’s time to plant our vegetable garden! Cliff made some awesome raised beds in our backyard last fall, but we just missed the planting window, so we’re excited to get some seeds going this spring!
