The new garden beds on the side of the house are going gang-busters. I even ate a cherry tomato out of the garden this morning. This picture was taken only a few weeks ago and already the peas and beans have started crawling up their walls. Here's what we are growing this year - chilis, cucumbers, melon, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, peppers, peas, beans rosemary, sage, thyme, basil, fennel, cilantro and oregano. We also got a hop vine to grow on the trellis. Hop is used to make beer and hop berries can be put right in your glass of beer to add an extra zing.

Hi Rylee!
ReplyDeleteGreat site, nice photos! This garden might be the first step to self-sufficiency > no more dodgy supermarket fruit&veg! I tell you what, if prices there are anything like they are here, you're much better off growing your own stuff. Happy holidays,
Teresa
Well if we actually had to survive from the produce of this garden,we wouldn't last long, I don't thinka handful of beans, and a couple of tomatoes and chile peppers would sustain us for long.....
