I love gardening, but it is becoming more and more apparent that I am terrible at it.  I am just laughing so hard because while I was looking at property yesterday in the gorgeous Seattle view neighborhood of Sunset Hill, I came across a vacant lot that was lovingly being "farmed".  This is not the funny part - this is the really cool part.  According to Eric the owner, this piece of land is unbuildable and as a result has been used for gardening since 1904. 

A Community Victory Garden?

Eric would love to get some kind of community gardening going on the land because he can't use the entire space.  This is a sensible guy with solar panels on his house and a genuine concern for pesticide free gardening.  I am surprised that no one has taken him up on his offer yet, really.  I know there are gardeners out there in Sunset Hill!

OK - Now the funny part:  Although he was quite modest, Eric is such a good gardener that he actually had VOLUNTEER tomato plants!!!!!  Hello?  I can't even get my babies to turn red let alone decide to volunteer for another year!

Seattle Real Estate: Sunset Hill Park

Seattle real estate:  Sunset Hill Neighborhood

7531 34th Ave. NW

I love Sunset Hill in Seattle!  It is such a wonderful neighborhood overlooking the Puget Sound!  Sunset Hill Park is a great place to walk to for Sunset Hill residents.  The park was gifted to the city in 1903 and is actually 2.7 acres, but seem like it is less than half an acre because most of it is on a slope overlooking the Sound and the Olympic Mountains. 

Sunset Hill Park:  It's About The Views!

This Sunset Hill park has benches and a small walking trail, but the big attraction?  The view!  Many people go just to sit down and read a book in the sun or check out the sailboats down below.  My personal connection is that my dear hubby proposed to me right there!  Sunset Hill Park is a wonderful spot and we are lucky to have it!
