We plant only non-gmo, organic, heirloom seeds. We've had a huge, huge garden which is at least twice the size of our full sized barn...however, it's too much, I can't take care of it and it's nothing but a weed patch. This fall hubby is building me two 4 x 10 raised beds, waist high. Also, a 2 x 5 or so raised bed for herbs. When he's finished, I'll take pictures and try to figure out how to put them on here.

I will plant only the veggies we will really eat. We've wasted so many veggies because no one wants them, although we are juicing these days and we will use more than I originally thought we would. Broccoli, kale, lettuce, onions, garlic, tomatoes, carrots, beets, and zuchini. Oh, and cucumbers. In the herb bed I'll put sage, thyme, rosemeary, parsley, dill, cilantro, and oregano. There is nothing like fresh home grown herbs. In pots I'll grow ginger...(takes 2 years so they come in for the winter), chamomile, peppermint and possibly astragalus or california poppy. Maybe feverfew, too. I use them for home remedies for our family as well as for cooking. Might try growing turmeric again, too.
