HOA Approved
I got my approval letter from the Home Owner's Association. It just kills me how weird it is having someone dictate whether or not I can have a garden in MY yard.
Dear Ms. "We Own You",
After reviewing the attached request, the Board of Director's of "We Control Your Life" has approved the proposal to install landscaping (removable wooden grow boxes) in the rear of the home, as long as above mentioned gardens are kept well maintained.
All work is to be performed at your sole cost and is your responsibility. Any damage resulting from this work is to be repaired at your sole cost and responsibility. Finally, all future maintenance and repair of these areas will be at your cost.
I trust this provides you with the framework for assisting you in this matter. Please feel free to contact me should you have any further comments or questions.
Sincerely,
"I bet you wish you bought elsewhere"
Did I mention I had to draw out the gardens on a site map with exact measurements and tell them exactly what I would be planting?
Okay, this will be my last HOA vent.
I've already started my seeds:
Peppermint
Spearmint
Basil
Razzleberry tomatoes
Cukes
Zuchinni
Two kinds of squash
Ladybug tomatoes
Hybrid tomatoes
We'll see how they do.

Am I worried for no reason?
Probably :)
I had Scott over here yesterday to check out my setup for the potential SFG. I am planning on four 4x4 gardens at the back of my house. He said that it shouldn't be much of an issue. The HOA should approve it and if not, he will talk to them.
This is good, cause I already ordered everything. In fact, I got most of the seeds yesterday. I am SOOOOOO excited!
I bought purple carrots and orange watermelons.
Jealous??

HOA Approval
I'm still waiting on the HOA approval for a garden in MY yard, attached to MY home!
I better get a yes or I will make sure they enforce all of their rules - all of which are being broken by all my neighbors.
Ridiculous!
I've also ordered everything. If I don't get the okay, I'm doing it anyway. They will have to deal.
I am so excited for the strawberries!!!
