It has been really busy at the South Orange Community Garden. Everything is growing and I have been weeding like a crazy person. I planted a couple of new things including onions, white radishes, carrots, okra and lettuce. I even harvested my first radishes, scallions, basil, and kalettes this past week! Yesterday I had to build a trellis for my cucumbers so they can grow up like my green beans. My arms are getting more and more toned every week! Gardening is hard work!
See below for some pictures of the fruit of my hard labor.

That is AWESOME! I would love to get involved with a community garden! I had a square foot garden a few years ago when I was at a place with some backyard-age. Now I’m just stuck with a small second floor deck, and a few potted plants (and a container of tomatoes!) But, do what you have with what you’ve got, right?
