From left to right: tomatoes, peas, yellow squash, broccoli, cauliflower, bibb lettuce, carrots, onions, spinach, mesclun, strawberries, eggplant.
We get a lot of cukes but you can’t cook them. We eat lots raw like an apple. I also put several into a blueberry cuke shake this morning.
Roma tomatoes
Broccoli was fun but it rots quickly, has HUGE leaves and only grows the one head. Same with cauliflower. The broc is supposed to have shoots come out but we haven’t gotten much.
The kids just pick the peas right off and eat them like that. You would have to plant A LOT of peas to get enough to do something with them.

Your garden is SOOOOO beautiful!!! Brian just walked by and was like "WOW! What are you looking at?" and I said "Eliza's garden!" and he was mighty impressed!
Eliza! Your garden looks amazing!!! Way to go for the first year!!!!! That's beautiful. Next year you'll have to add some kale. I never even ate kale until this year and now we all adore it. It's great in soups, add some to your stir fry, and they make great chips!!! I'll give you a really easy recipe if you're interested. Kale will grow all year round and keep regrowing so it's an amazing crop and one of the healthiest things you can eat.
Yellow squash and zucchini are my favorites to grow. They're so beautiful and they make me feel like a super Italian!
I have heard that growing pole beans instead of peas produces more crops and you can grow them on a big hoop or something to conserve space. I may try that next year, although I have a ton of pea seeds left to plant still.
I'm totally impressed!!!!
Oh Eliza. That wonderful garden. I love it. LOVE IT!
