You have a nice big garden. I used to have a veggie garden every year but now that DH has retired we took it out and planted grass cuz we are supposed to hit the road and see the sights. I still am going to plant some stuff in planter boxes on the deck so we can at least have enough for salads but not this year. I grow my tomatoes in a green house also but took a break from that too. Although my friend up the road just asked if I wanted some of her tomatoes that she grew from seed or she was going to have to throw some away cuz she has too many so I might just take her up on that. Nothing better than fresh stuff from the garden. The store stuff has no flavor!
