2023 - From Garden to Table

Growing Your Own Food is Possible. The following photos are from just my second year ever growing my own garden. If I can do it, you can too.

Garden on a June Morning
Second year of gardening, and all is beyond expectations. Maybe 3 to 4 times more food than last year. Up 15 or 20 volunteer squash plants this year and everything is producing like crazy. Volunteer peppers, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and watermelon. The kale is relentless, and the broccoli is on its second production after harvesting. The banana tree is putting on new leaves ever couple of days. The Garden Is Rockin’!

Third Kale Harvest of the Year!! Two Laundry Baskets Filled Up!

Another New Banana Tree Leaf (10 Leaves So Far - A New Leaf Every 3 Days)
…and, since this picture, there is another new leaf, the 5th or 6th so far.
