Do you have a vegetable garden?
« on: June 11, 2015, 11:51:22 am »
We always had one, not huge but enough for us.  One day before I went to work I went out and watered it, when I came home the garden was leveled!  The critters ate it all!  My plants that were growing nice were now just sticks.  Needless to say that was the last veggie garden for me.  Now I buy vegetables at road stands ir farmers markets.

I can't: if my dogs don't get to it, the rabbits do.

I  do not have a big garden anymore. Just tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. The rest I buy at the farmers market. The only thing I can are the tomatoes, cucumber relish and salsa. The rest I like to buy fresh all the time. Just the 2 of us and I can't see canning a lot more.

No.  No garden.  A pity really.

I usually plant flowers, but once in a while I'll plant some veggies. This year I'm trying to grow spinach.

We don't have a vegetable garden, but we do grow vegetables and fruit in summer. Last year it was tomatoes, strawberries, and herbs.

Not this year. I have given up. Between the heat, horrible soil, and chipmunks/squirrels it just doesnt happen for me.

I have one every year.  I'm disappointed this year.  For one thing, it got very hot way to early and has stressed my plants.   Also, because I live in central Calif, we are on a tight water restriction.  That being said, I have harvested Italian squash, tomatoes, yellow squash, and potatoes.  I love eating food I have grown.

One day I would like to have one. Right now I just go to the outside market and pick up all my veggies.
