Hiya Shyla....still a tad cold your way I suppose.

Do you have a large garden?

[mnehring]

Not sure I would call what I do art.. more like keeping them alive..

[Tanniker Smith]

Evening, Connie!
Evening, all.

Should be figs out there at some point.

[AZamericonnie]

Welcome to the canteen George from New England!

[digger48]

That’s alot of onions!:)

Eat some through the season, and throw them and peppers in with my tomaotes when I can them. Even if they're not full size yet.

Makes for some of the best chili!

[AZamericonnie]

Welcome to the canteen Last Dakotan!

Do you brew your own?

[Shyla]

Actually no.

We are at home for five days and the other two at our camper. We try to keep viable gardens at both. Tomatos, zucchini, squash, lettuce, several types of peppers, acorn squash, a few pumpkins, the usual.

We live more in the country so there are many inexpensive stands that we go to for the rest such as corn.

[digger48]

Already have seen two caterpillars in the corn

Oh! So you torture your corn, huh?

[PERKY2004]

In.

[OldGuard1]

You keep an F4 Phantom in your garden.. cool! :-> I'd grow one too, but they're not hardy down to zone 5a. :(

[AZamericonnie]

LOL!!!
