A few of my favorite things

By Elisa | 4 Comments »

Bikes and gardens!  I am sure that many of you are well aware of my love for gardens (how could you not be as much as I talk about them and take photos and have parties?!)

Proud farmer for plot #10!

Well this week I was awarded a plot at the community garden at Jones Valley Urban Farm!  Freddy and I took a ride over to visit it today.  It needs a LOT of love, but is just waiting for me to grow something wonderful.

Suggestions for what to grow?  I will keep you posted with photos and reports from my bounty.

   Tomatoes and onions. Glorious! If you want, also some jalapenos.

   Radishes grow really quickly. Spinach. Swiss chard. Carrots of course! Snow peas have really pretty plants. Anything you can squeeze into a juicer.

   Tomatoes, green beans, and cucumbers. I’d suggest zucchini too, but you may not have the space. What fun!

   I highly recommend

   the most gorgeous basil you will ever have, its color is beautiful when making pesto and the flavor is soooo wonderful.

   or tomato’s try to get some heirloom varieties! The purple ones look a little weird but again are quite wonderful
