Veggie Garden
To keep things simple, let's consider as vegetables all produce mentioned here even if some are technically fruits.
In this corner of our backyard is my husband's veggie garden.
He is growing tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, onions and cabbage.
Here are, almost literally, the first fruits of his labor.
And here is the side salad that went with dinner last night. I took the largest tomato and the largest cucumber in the photo above; added 1/3 Vidalia onion
(store-bought; the onions in the backyard need another week or so to grow), 1
Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper to
taste; and chilled the salad for 15 mins before serving.

ReplyDeleteIt's so inspiring, Dul! Does he use fertilizer?
ReplyDeleteBanana, so true!
ReplyDeleteEmma, thanks! He uses Bonnie Plant Foods (https://bonnieplants.com/library/bonnie-herb-and-vegetable-plant-food-now-available-for-home-gardens/).
Wow, so much produce from a compact space! Did he start from seed or seedlings?
