The Joy of Home Grown Produce
There is nothing nicer than harvesting your very own veggies - I know that I am always pushing this, but I really think everyone should be aware of the fact that it is by far the healthier choice if grown organically.
Our food is getting more and more expensive and to be honest, with GMO products and pesticides, it is not a nice thought to feed this to your family.
I understand that not everyone has the facility to grow lots of food, but this is where container gardening is a wonderful way of growing healthy food.
I have about 14 containers that I grow veggies and I can honestly say it is the best thing ever - water is not wasted, soil quality can be achieved and feeding made simple.
My heirloom bell peppers are busy ripening and I am so thrilled with the "chocolate" pepper that has just been picked.
The weather is warming up nicely and my tomato seedlings will soon be ready to plant out and I am looking forward to these as I am trying a couple of new heirloom varieties.
Last night I picked some greens for a salad - such a pleasure to have it all on my doorstep.
Delicious as well as beautiful.
My first chocolate bell pepper.
Harvesting own veggies really great!
Yes indeed - thanks for stopping by.

The pansies make the whole salad! But yeah, I really miss not wandering to the garden for stuff this year...
The feeling is great knowing that nature has rewarded one.

Thank you
It is always healthier to reap what we are going to consume since we know how it is created and completely natural, just my mother has an orchard is the top of her house and every time we do family gatherings we eat strawberry and very rich
That is wonderful for your entire family
Beautiful. Simply beautiful. And I totally understand that feeling of accomplishment and pleasure when you harvest and eat fresh organic foods you have grown. Great work!
Thank you for those kind words.
