My growing garden

Here are some photos of my little patch of garden in our backyard. We are eating plenty of Swiss Chard, fava beans, lettuce, onions and celery. This is what I do to relax and with it comes the extra benefit of saving some money on groceries.

  Wow! your garden looks so good. Makes me want to mix up a green smoothie. Glad to see all the wonderful growth after your crazy cold winter.

  yeah… I harvested the fava beans, blanched and froze them. We have enough to last until next year! Loving it!
