Gardens

I agree if they're home grown. Store bought just aren't the same. Same goes for green beans
I trade a good bit of my tomatoes to my mom and aunt for canning. What ever they can, I get half back plus I make them toss in some home-made chow chow:becky:.
I do split the canning supplies with them
 
I love tomatoes.... probably have three dozen tomato plants.
Better Boy, Celebrity, Roma, Yellow Boy, Yellow pair heirlooms, Solar Fire, Sweet 100 and maybe a few more but can't keep track.
Lots of work

I have a nice garlic patch as well that my Gran Gran started in 1959 when they bought this place.
The older the garlic, the better.


The Elephant Garlic I'm growing has been grown by my family for over 80 years. Your right. The older the better.
 
I've been wanting to try the Cherokee purple.
One of my uncles was supposed to bring me a few so I didn't grab any

It is my favorite. They are susceptible to Nematodes, Fusariam Wilt, and Tobacco Mosaic but are well worth the effort. If the Cherokees have problems, the Better Boys will not.
 
My Silver Queen corn is gittin'it
Lots of corn, various peppers, various Tomatoes, Charleston grey watermelon, cantaloupe, straight neck squash, zucchini, okra and Boston cucumbers.
I'm already harvesting squash and zucchini.... Yummy on the grill last night with some pork chops.

I side dressed everything yesterday and tilled two of my gardens with one more to go.
Made for a good sleep last night for sure :faint:

Whats in your garden this year?

Your garden is coming along good. Picked my first cucumbers today.
