Do many of you participate in a community garden? Or have a little garden in your yard? Or even both. Growing up my mom always had a garden on the farm. I've moved several time and found different places I couldn't have a garden or didn't. And other places I had a garden or a community garden plot. This year my partner is putting two 4 by 8 foot raised beds into our back yard for me to have veggies grow in. We plan on putting radishes, beans, peas and onions in. i also paid for two 4 by 16 foot beds a the community garden to plant potatoes, carrots and beets in. With trying to eat more veggies and fewer carbs we find veggies here to be quite pricey. This will be the first year I've had a garden in two places.

I have a backyard garden and I built a rooftop hanging inverted planting and pot planted vegetable garden on top of our garage roof during the quarantine lockdown in our country.

@louievill Very nice to challenge yourself. What kind of plants have you planted?

@saundyl I had been challenging myself to fit in as many healthy fruiting plants and green leafy vegetables on the limited space of the garage roof top during the more than 2 months total lockdown.

I've noticed a lot of new names and faces at our community garden here this year as well. Some i think are doing it because they have more time right now. And others because of the costs.

yes veggies in the market are too pricy. it's better to grow your own garden of veggies you normally eat daily
