Vegetable? Herbs? Fruit? Combinations?
I planted my first veggie garden this year and am totally LOVING it! Everything is producing beautifully and you just can't beat fresh from the garden! Not to mention my grandmothers and Mum give me extra that I'm able to blanche and freeze for the winter! I'm hoping to make my first few jars of pickles and possibly salsa! I also plan to plant some herbs next year!

Not this year... we've just been too busy to get it going. Next year we hope to plant some veggies though.

We have tomatoes, peppers and really tall sunflowers (like 8-9 ft). We had pumpkins and mint but my black thumb killed them.

We have a combo of veggies and herbs. We planted wayyyyy too many tomatoes!

My BIL does and we get veggies from him. I save my scraps for his compost pile.

My spring/summer veggie garden has been done for a couple of months, since there's not much that will make it in the Florida heat past June, but I'm about to plant my fall garden in the next few weeks. I'm getting the soil ready this weekend, actually.
We always have blackberries and this year we grew grapes (for summer), too. Out citrus trees are full and will probably be ready to pick by November. Ready for fresh OJ!

I wish! I have a great area, but I think my dog would pee in it! So I have one potted tomato plant instead.

We have a very small space, but have three tomato plants and a zucchini. And herbs! One of the tomato plants has sooo many green ones but they refuse to ripen and I'm afraid the frost will get them before they ripen. The other two plants are doing great! And I have sooo many zucchini that now my neighbors won't answer their doors for fear of being given more

Yep! We have a ton of herbs, tomatoes, garlic, carrots, onions, peppers, radishes, fava beans, snow peas, brussels sprouts, bennings green tint summer squash, and we have a pumpkin that grew out of our compost pile. We're so lucky that our landlord was okay with us making half of our tiny yard into gardens!

This was my first year planting one and it is only mildly successful. The squirrels here are horrible and have eaten every tomato except two that I managed to pick before they got to them. I have harvested one cucumber and two zucchini. Everything else didn't fare so well. I do still have pumpkins, at least two of those are looking good so far.
My yard came with copious amounts of mint and garlic though so we do have that and oregano which I sadly can't stand.
I am looking forward to next year though, this year has been a learning experience for sure!

Yes vegetable but it has sort of gone wild thanks to our 2 week vacation without anyone to help weed it. We planted corn, green beans, tomatoes, bell peppers, and squash. We're getting tomatoes every day but are freezing them to be made into sauce at a later date. We've frozen the corn and nothing else really did well.
