It was years ago that we had vegetables growing in our garden and now the gardener is showing interest. He is back form his holiday and has brought a few vegetable seeds form his garden. I told him to go ahead and use them and that he being a farmer himself should know how to go about it Keeping my fingers crossed. I see most are the type that grow on vines. I have given the gardener full responsibility and told him to inform me when vegetables show up (lol) What is it that you lost interest and are now back at it?

I used to have a vegetable garden but I did the work. Your home grown vegetable are much better than those in the grocery store.

I am seriously thinking about it. Bananas used to grow here but for some reason they don't now and bananas have become expensive

That will be so nice! I hope he is successful, and we will end up getting to see pictures of the results (I assume by then the picture issue will be fixed.). I have taken up survey sites again this past month. I had given up on them a long time ago, but I'd really like to up my online earnings. It allows me to pay for birthday and Christmas presents, and I get to help people on occasion.

I believe survey sites do contribute towards earnings but what put me off was the repetition of info that we have to fill up with every survey. I given up uploading pictures here but I am now doing it at a Site where navigation is cake walk both videos and images.

I confess that my life has shrunk with age. I used to love to garden.

I don’t have a place to garden now but I wouldn’t want to. The heats too much.

My home grown vegetables taste nicer than the market produce. That's a good decision.

Gardens are good when they produce well. I miss photography. The heat is too much here to get out and enjoy. Maybe in the fall I can pick it up again.

Actually for us it is also gardening. We haven’t had a garden in a long time until this year.

I used to have an allotment some years back but gave that up - for a variety of reasons - but in the last few years have begun growing stuff at home. A friend of ours built us some raised beds and then I added more so there's quite a bit of space dedicated to growing vegetables. I like to grow fairly easy stuff - potatoes, squashes, runner beans, broad beans.

We used to grow our own fruits and vegetables at home. However, in order to extend our home, we had to remove the garden. I miss going out to pick some mangoes and papaya to eat for dessert.

There is no dearth of fruits in our garden. Sad you had to even uproot fruit trees.

That sounds great. Home grown vegetables taste better.
