Om's Chimeria garden

Garden Type: Edible | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Combination I'm Organic!

There is a ton of stuff growing here, and this is where I put in the most work. But at the moment, I am working in the garden instead of writing about it! This is primarily a veggie garden, of course there are some other things due to companion planting and the things that were already there.
