There is nothing like fresh salad. I grew a bit one year and was surprised that lettuce had a TASTE! The stuff from the grocery store is basically water. If I ever get my raised beds built in the front I'll have plenty of lettuce as well as tomatoes, onions and even cantaloupe. I want to put in bee and hummingbird friendly flowers amongst the vegetables too. That area gets a lot of sun so I might even try corn. Some of the neighbors have done it. mlaiuppahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13792165896828163411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4801701223883172850.post-85995080985451942802018-05-11T21:52:15.482-04:002018-05-11T21:52:15.482-04:00Your garden is going to be incredible!
