Someone in our association complained about our garden!
This older guy name Lou (he happens to be the grandfather of an old neighbor) made the complaint.
There are many people that have flower beds planted in the same area, so it seems to me that people feel that Gardens are ugly. At the moment, there is nothing really happening, so it does look like a lot of dirt with a few buds.
Love these ducks that live in our pond!
It is really important to Mr. BBH and I that we teach our children a healthy lifestyle and learning where their food comes from is part of this.
Here are some other people’s flower plantings in our association

It reminds me of a case in Oak Park, Michigan last year of a women that was going to get jail time for planting a vegetable garden.
What do you think?

I think it is ridiculous, and I would be taking it up with the association at the next meeting. We own a condo with strict association rules, but many people in the division plant vegetable gardens! Some of them are as beautiful as they are edible, and others might not be aesthetically pretty but they have good veggie plants!
Thanks Jess!! I love having our garden and can’t wait to eat from it!
