I own a very small property (170 deep X 60feet wide)
I want to put a house, 32x32, a garage, 12x32, (already on the property,) a greenhouse, 12x 14, and a garden on it.

My real problem is, that I see huge trees, grape arbors, Fruit trees, veggie gardens, beautiful flowers, patios, garden furniture, and a million other things, that just may refuse to fit on my property.

My land is as flat as a pancake, but has very rich soil, and is 9 blocks from the Bay, in a private community in the middle of nowhere, In Southern Maryland.

My family thought I was nuts for trying to do all of this but, it is now 3 years in the making, and is far better off than I ever expected.

I own the land free and clear, I own the garage, and had electric installed in it a week ago. The foundation goes in, in the spring, and I better get some trees and shrubs started now before its too late. I also have a greenhouse planned, I start that tomorrow.

Not bad for someone that didnt have a home or a dime 3 years ago. I give God the glory for getting me out of the pit I was in, and am looking forward to seeing every single thing I see in my mind on my property.

I think watching the miracle of a garden growing is the most outstanding thing in the world to witness.

I plan to witness it every day of my life, in my own home, with my own garage, with my own trees, with my own greenhouse.
On my own little piece of "Gods green earth."

I live in: United States

My zone is: 7a So. MD
