We are well into my first vegetable gardening season as a big person with a big plot (as opposed to a child with a 4'x4' square). I'm pleased to report that no matter what happens for the rest of the season, this year has been a great success!
First of all, I love my -- excuse me -- our garden far more than I ever imagined possible. Not only is it a great way to get outside and moving, but we have been eating lots of delicious fresh vegetables. Right now we harvest a ton of greens: collards, Swiss chard and kale by the boxful. We've also recently harvested zuchini, basil, carrots, and the first tomato. The zuchini is (no exageration) the best I've ever tasted when it's picked small; it's tender, sweet and buttery.
Stay tuned for details...
