Carrie, Carrie, quite contrary... How does your garden grow?
Check out my tomatoes! This is the first year I've planted a garden, and I think I really really overdid it on the tomato end of things! I have 22 plants between roma, cherry, and 3 heirloom plants from Danielle. She gave me a Husky Gold, a Green Zebra, and a Golden Cherry plant. We also have a plant from one of Dan's coworkers that supposedly produces tomatoes the size of small chick peas (garbanzo beans/ poichiche/ humms/ etc) in clusters that resemble grapes. Dan thinks they'll be awesome for drying and tossing on salads... yummy!
Once my peppers catch up, we're going to have salsa coming out our ears... too bad I didn't plant any cilantro! PLEASE, if you're in the area, feel free to come over and take some of these off my hands in a couple of weeks when they start ripening!
The first tomatoes: Romas & Sweet 100s
The first peppers, a pinch of mint
the first cucumber, and the whole shebang
