Anyone can be a gardener. You just need to get ready, get set, and grow!
During 2022, we grew: oregano, thyme, mint, French tarragon, lavender, sage, basil, green onion, kale, Brussel sprouts, spinach, okra, bell peppers, banana peppers, radishes, peas, cantaloupe, cucumbers, cherry tomato, and regular-sized tomato.
I hope I did not forget anything!

Conducting a research study for my dissertation took me away from my garden more than I wanted.
New Updates

We grew two new kinds of tomato plants.

We installed more beds. We still don't have enough garden beds yet. Hopefully, in 2023, we can finish this task. .
From Our Boys
-
Jerry - We planted a diverse amount of plants. Some I hadn't planted before, but not my brother and me. All the plants tasted good and gardening was pretty fun.
-
James - I am glad we planted different kinds of tomatoes that we have not planted before. Unfortunately, some of the full-size tomatoes did not grow as well, and the cherry tomatoes grew too much. I got tired of picking cherry tomatoes.
