Every year try something new in your garden! Grow something you have never grown before and you might discover a vegetable that you really like. This year I am growing eggplant, something that I really don't like to eat, but I am growing it to increase my son, Bryce's, quantity of seed. New plants (to me) that I am also growing, that I will eat:
---Cosmic Purple Carrots
---Black Hungarian Peppers
---Saffola
---Fennel
---Kudzu (maybe I won't eat this, but it's really good used as a mulch)
---Painted Lady Pole Beans
For Mother's Day, I received several different kinds of grains to grow---and that will be very new for me! Besides harvesting the grain, the roots of the plants help improve the soil they are growing in. Some grains add nutrients, and some grains grow deep to break up heavy soils.
What's new in your garden this year? Let me know what it is!
