Some friends and I, as well as neighbors, have started a community garden. I won’t disclose the location, but, know this: it is awesome. There’s about 200 by 50 feet of usable area – most of which has been planted. In the ground and growing are:
- spinach
- collards
- mustards
- brazing mix
- broccoli
- brussels sprouts
- cabbage
- cauliflower
- carrots
- peas
- radishes
- beets
- swiss chard (two kinds)
- turnips
- celeriac
- bush beans
- cucumbers (two kinds)
- squash
- zucchini
- potatoes
- leeks
- onions
- tomatoes (several varieties)
- peppers (several varieties)
- eggplant
- tomatillo
- cilantro
- thyme
- oregano
- basil
- kale
- zinias
- sunflowers
- lillies
- other flowers
We’re hoping to have a few neighborhood BBQs featuring food from the garden – but that probably won’t be until closer to August or September. I hope to have pictures up soon!
