Everyday Food for Busy People
You can see this tomato tree on the Living with the Land ride in Epcot. The ride takes you on a tour of green houses where they are doing some amazing things with growing plants and even fish and alligators. This tomato tree blows my mind. I think they said they harvest something like 40 bazillion cherry tomatoes off of it.
Take a look at the bell pepper plants:
Sweet success! It was just one ripe strawberry, but it tasted good and it was from our very own garden. My 6 year old shared it with me. We probably could have left it to ripen in the sun another day or two, but we couldn’t wait.
It’s been a few weeks since I’ve updated on our garden boxes. On Mother’s Day weekend we planted tomatoes, basil, peppers, cucumber, and parsley. The cucumber got broken off, so that was replaced a few days later. I’m not sure this one is going to survive either though, because we had a very late frost earlier in the week. My basil took a hit, although it will probably survive. One tomato plant looks kind of pitiful.
I shared a few weeks ago that we are attempting to grow our own produce in the backyard. Although we have no grand ideas about growing all the veggies we eat, we do have high hopes for tomatoes and a few other things. My husband and kids planted a few things about 1 1/2 weeks ago and they are coming up now.
