This garden has been archived.

Tricia, Jason, Andy, and I are going to try a garden on property bought by Tricia and Jason. The garden is located in the ‘Teardrop Field’ behind the warehouse that sits on the property.
We would like to be able to put up some of our harvest for eating in the winter, but are trying not to bite off more than we can chew.

summer 2008

fell behind in updating, so decided to cut my losses and start over the next year

And you are off for the season! BTW, I followed the link to the Tomato Festival (from your plantings) and bought tickets to this year’s event. Tasting so many varieties sounds like fun. Plus I imagine we will pick up a few seeds too…:-) Have you been to the festival?
