when are you sowing your garden this year?

Me too! I really need to do a cost comparison. The initial expense is high, but there must be some savings over store bought stuff. I know it tastes hecka better. One thing I cannot wait for is the taste of a locally grown tomato. I have not had a tomato right out of the garden since I was a kid.

I've never had a tomato right out of the garden lol I'd rather eat the dirt! But for folks that like that sorta thing I heard they are great lol!

Well if you don't like tomatoes then good news! Everything tastes better grown locally and allowed to ripen on the plant instead of grown in another country picked early and shipped to a store.


EDIT: I still have a lot of seedlings left. I just can't get myself to throw them away seems like a waste. Sooo.... my idea is to wait until i can see my seedlings are established, and put them in containers to grow. We will see how that works I guess.

Year 1 of Garden. This is the third year for the pear trees and second year for the rasberries. I too have a lot of seedinglings left. Peppers and a mix of tomatoes. Gonna keep them this week and will be giving them away after that. I always had a garden in Michingan and water was never an issue. This year's water bill is going to be looked over. A down spout reroute is on the list of items.

List of items growing:

Carrots
Onions
Tomotoes
Green Beans
grapes
pears
rasberries
peppers (red, green and yellow)
cukes
cantaloupe
