    Jo/glitz Wonderful photos! I have a feeling I'm going to start suffering from Spring fever a bit earlier this year...after seeing everyone's garden photos.

    Amber Thanks for the get well wishes. I am finally starting to feel better. Still feel very tired but definitely on the mend. How about you?

    We always grow too much zucchini too. The one year we purposely did...every now and then, when we are super organized, we specifically plant seeds for all of the veggies needed for a recipe. Like one year we planted everything we needed to make/can Zucchini Relish. Another year we planted everything we needed to make salsa. It's fun.

    Our garden situation is this...around our house we have been working on the landscaping on all four sides. We have been here about 4 1/2 years (none of the previous owners bothered to do any gardening). The soil is dreadful, so I understand why no one else attempted. We grow our vegetables in our two 16' by 36' plots in the organic section of the local community gardens. We have been gardening those 2 plots for almost 20 years. We tried to do veggies here at the house but the deer and raccoon thought we were growing stuff for them.

    Gardening at the community gardens has been such fun. You learn so much from the other gardeners.
