many people in ny have beautiful back yards/gardens.
Why dont they grow some fruits and vegetables?
Isn't it a beautiful thing to do?

We have a small section of our backyard set aside just for this - every year we grow cucumbers, tomatoes, peas, and string beans. And then we experiment with a different veggie every year - this year it's zucchini. We have everything planted now, so we are all so excited about it!!!

We're trying to do that this year! Last year I only grew herbs.

My first apartment had no grass whatsoever only cement. my 2nd I'm still renting and there's a small patch of grass in front and an even smaller one on the back. Hardly optimal for growing a garden outside. Sounds great if you can do it however.

Hey it's been done ... but when my ex was around ... my dd helped him plant stuff this year and I must say I am jealous ... it would be FUN but I seem to have a brown thumb ... maybe I should plant a tomatoe ... my neighbor plants stuff ... including some little muy caliente peppers
