Eat and Sip in the City

Mid Summer Garden Update 2014

I haven’t posted in a bit about the garden so I figured I would share some pics. If you are new around here, my fiance Sal has a huge garden in his families yard that I help out with and then him and I also have our share of plants growing in pots on our little deck at our place. Here are some highlights from the garden!

One of the first things that we grew and picked at the beginning of June were radishes!

RadishesAnd the herbs were growing like crazy including chives…

 Sal is all about peppers this year and has tons of pots filled with everything from super spicy ones like ghost peppers to milder ones like these Italian sweet peppers.

Next up…Sal’s favorite snack – snap peas!

I can’t wait to chow down on the kale soon. It has grown tons since this pic.

Not pictured above are tons of flowers, herbs, cucumbers, brussel sprouts, carrots, onions, green beans, raspberries, strawberries, and eggplant, we are also growing (or grew, picked, and enjoyed)!

What about you; do you have a garden outdoors, on a deck or patio, or even inside?

    OMG That garden is truly spectacular!!!!!

    It’s so great that Sal’s family shares the huge space and all of those wonderful fruits and vegetables. And even nicer that Sal’s dad takes time to water the garden; his dad looks pretty big in that picture but I guess after all those years rolling dough he got some muscles.
