2010 Spring Garden

In our efforts to become more environmentally conscious, we are attempting to live sustainably from our "land," as tiny as it may be. Our goal is to eat at least 60% of our food from the garden. We built a raised garden that is 25 feet by 4 ft. We planted the following:

Herbs: Cilantro, Parsley, Basil, Chives, Dill, Rosemary, Sage, Mint
Vegetables: Hestia Bean, Kentucky Bean, Okra Lee, Snow Peas, Eggplant (2 types), Red, Green and Yellow Bell Pepper, Thai Pepper, Lettuce, Spinach, Kale, Carrots, Swiss Chard
Fruits/Berries/Citrus: Blackberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, Blood Orange, Calamuddin Orange, Mexican Lime
