Experimental vegetarian cooking and urban gardening in Ontario, Canada
Hey guys, If you’ve been following me at all, you’ve already seen my post about the mixed flower and vegetable garden that we have out front. The main garden (aka the rock garden) that I use for growing veggies is located on the other side of the house, at the top of a small hill where there used to be […]
Hey guys, As I mentioned in my previous post, I’ve been editing my photos from the past few months. The front garden photos are now ready.

I have a new plot at a different community garden. I’m thankful that I managed to get a spot for the season; I had to wait in line for TWO hours to get it, but it was worth it! After hours and hours of hard work, I managed to fill half the plot with tomato, eggplant, sweet pepper, and watermelon […]
