Grow my own fruit and vegetables

tomatoes, apples, squash, peppers, berries!

its yum. :)

have made pickled plums. We call it UMEBOSHI in Japan. It is really sour and salty. Most foreigners don’t like it but its good for your health.
You can buy it at a grocery store but I’m making it! Those plums I bought are pretty small like candies so it would take only 2 weeks to pickle. Can’t wait!

I have two types of Japanese orange trees, a cherry tree and a loquat tree in my back yard.
I already have had all the cherries in April. was YUM! And now, I am waiting for loquats. It is still green and tiny though. :D
I have started grow red and yellow bell peppers. Hope they will grow well.

I. Love. Gardening. :)

Garden is currently covered in suppressant membrane after soaking the earth in “ZAP-O-KILLA-WEED” (well that’s what I’m calling it!)
Rotivation to happen by March, and then we can lay turf, layout beds and set aside space for veggies in October!!

I would have a patch of garden dedicated to vegetable growing, get some little trees too, that would be nice. It’s either that or use a space at an allotment, but they’re few and far between these days.

The carrots were good, garlic – ok, onions – ok, radisheses – hot, potatos—gorgeous.

they jsut taste better…

Must seem odd as I don’t actually eat fruit and vegetables, but there is something that’s oddly satisfying about growing things for yourself. Also, you know exactly what’s going into your food.
