Home Grown Produce


So, it has been my wife's ambition to grow a garden. We have a 5x9 plot of land dedicated to the growing of produce. We also have a bunch of pots in which different things grow like citrus and grapes and potatoes. We had a harvest. It was kind of meager but it was a harvest none the less. So, this year, from our garden we got a squash (I think).


We also got a bunch of small potatoes. I cut them up before remembering to take the picture. They sure were tasty with that marinade.
Now, we have heard that you can grow potatoes during any season of the year here in Florida. So, we decided to plant this fall more potatoes, but in the ground and not in the pots. Maybe we will have some more success from the garden.

As a side note, we also got a bunch of peas that we ate as soon as they were ready. The baby fruit trees are doing great though.

Love the squash! Its nice to know that others are getting mixed success too. Enrichment is having another gardening class at the end of the month. Next month we might plant again for the 2nd AZ growing season. And I'm armed with juicy fruit to kill our pest!
