I am always happy when I work with soil but since I moved to China I had no access to do gardening. The new place I moved in has a small allotment. It is full of wild grass and weeds and wild yam. I am still waiting for my sickle to be delivered. In one corner I started with basil and thyme, two aloes and sweet potatoes. IP: Logged |

I live in the north country but I garden year around. Out in the soil in the summer and in my home + greenhouse in winter! Currently I am growing cold crops like lettus and kale. After the first frost, we will harvest our potatos and fruits. The grapes need another month yet . ------------------

Hi Randall...Would you describe what it is like in a salad bar in US? Is it all-you-can-eat style? I harvested sweet potato leaves and stir-fried them for dinner! Not bad at all!

I don`t care for kale or swiss chard. I grow it for the colors in Autumn decortions! 
I do eat all the lettus`s grown in fall tho!------------------

Heirloom tomatos are on my agenda this year. I`m going to grow them in bales of straw. Wild strawberries are coming on and if I can keep the dogs and birds from eating them, I will make jam! ------------------
