What is a MUST in Your Garden?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Tomatoes. If we grow nothing else, we have to have tomatoes. I have had the best luck with “Celebrity” tomatoes.
We grew and sold ‘Celebrity’ at the Farmer’s Market and to local restaurants. You cannot beat that tomato when it comes to tomatoes that will NOT split and always look perfect.
They taste good too, of course! :)
Multiple peppers hot and sweet. Lacinato kale, soybeans beets (borage for the pretty purple flowers and because tomatoes over them) peas and squash varieties.
My bride is all about tomatoes.
I, on the other hand, are more interested in root crops, beans, and cucumbers. I am looking for cattle panels to form arches over our raised beds. Going vertical as well as bush.
Gonna be a fun year. I need to get one of those collection pumps to push water from the basement sink up and into the drain line to the septic system. Then, plumb the hot and cold water down to the faucet. Long overdue.
