Thank you! Right now we are growing just what was already established by the original owner—which is A LOT! We were given a great head start and decided to let our first year be “wild” and see what was growing here without interference. As far as edibles, we have: a peach and a plum tree, two pear trees; raspberries, blackberries, blueberries; garlic; asparagus; and grapes! We also have an incredible assortment of perennials that are laid out in a way that we always have beautiful patches of flowers during each warm season and an inedible cherry tree.
We hope to eventually grow all the produce we need for our family of four, but my toddler eats berries faster than I ever imagine a human could. I’m growing sungold cherry tomatoes, spaghetti squash, and some bell peppers indoors experimentally this winter!
