Few years ago, I had a cherry tomato plant pop up in a crack in the driveway.

In that brutal environment it cranked out tasty gems all summer.

I’ve got about a dozen squash of some kind-might be butternut-and countless tomato plants.

One year, I strategically threw veggie trimmings, lawn clippings and dead leaves on the ground for about 6 months.

When it was time to plant, the ground was nice and soft.

I dug around and haphazardly planted a bunch of corn, bean and squash seeds to try and get a three sisters kind of thing going on just for the heck of it.

The squash died, but I got a little bit of corn out of it and quite a few green beans for such a tiny spot.

That’s what I was going to do with this little pile of stuff, but I got too many volunteers. I had to make a new pile of stuff because I planted an avocado tree in the old one.
