    Just started a herb garden this year. Growing rosemary, parsley, sweet basil, and cilantro. Also growing a blueberry shrub. Going to grow some veggies next year. My hubby is going to build my a garden area. For now just using pots.

    My flowers look awesome fyi :happy:

    I wish I could garden more! I live in an apartment sooooooo we have two cherry tomato plants and some other veggies (ummm my boyfriend got them and I forget what they are LOL) ... obviously they haven't grown much yet. Super excited for when they do grow!
    My cherry tomato died last year :(

    I grew up on a farm...even tho living there I didn't do a whole lot, that was more my parents thing; but when I bought my own house, I felt the need to start gardening. It started with just some flower beds, then its exploded from there! Flowers, veggies, a plot at the community garden, etc!

    I'm nowhere near being GOOD at gardening, but I enjoy it, and keep plugging away at it anyhow -- and my yard looks better than the neighbors, so I must be doing something right!

    I have a small garden area that I work on from time to time when my back permits :) I have roses a tomato plant, a jalapeno plants, a few other flowering plants, 2 kinds of aloe vera, a cherry tree, some other kind of fruit tree and some plants i can't even remember what they are, lol. I enjoy it, it makes me feel happy to see how lovely it all looks once I've got it all cleaned up and arranged just so. Collected rocks from here and there to do borders around and make it look pretty and gonna go get some wood chips this weekend as I am in the process of removing weeds and the old weed barrier and putting in a new one. Also made a little sitting area with potted plants all around, a bistro set and firepit for summer nights which I am looking forward to using very soon, maybe this weekend :)

    I have about a 15-foot by 25-foot plot that I garden. Squash, peas, pumpkin, cucumbers, beans, carrots - simple stuff. I love eating out of my own garden. It doesn't yield a LOT (especially with the @#$@#$ groundhog!), but it's a nice supplement to our food.

    We also joined a farmshare this year, and for $500 we're hoping to be inundated with a supply of locally-grown fresh vegetables all summer long.
