Growing the Garden


We have a pair of bluebirds in our yard

We've had a small vegetable garden for the past 4 or 5 years now.  We grow tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, beans, lettuce, and carrots.  We're ready to expand the size of our garden, in order to grow more of each vegetable.  But, I'd also like to add some new veggies.  We've considered some peppers, corn, maybe a melon of some kind.  Anyone have a favorite veggie or fruit?

Our herbs have always done really well.  We've got a monster rosemary bush that just keeps going and going!  We also have sage, russian sage, thyme, german thyme, pineapple sage, oregano, sweet basil, cinnamon basil, and dill.  I definitely want to add some chives next year.

It seems the older I get the more I enjoy being in the garden, and eating from the garden!
