It's crazy easy to do and just from my tiny garden I've got a few jars each of pickles, peppers, and squash.
It's really satisfying getting to plate and serve the things you grow, too. I've gotten a ton of tomatoes this summer and wouldn't you believe it I'm still getting tomatoes! It's mid-November and the tomato plants just aren't wanting to give up! They've been good for eating raw, putting into the things I cook..
This is my 2nd year tending to one now and I wish I started years ago. Moreover, I wish I gardened with my Granddad. He'd tend a big one every summer and I helped a few times but kid-me thought it was boring and wanted to get back to playing his video games instead. Now I'm into gardening and he's so old and weak he can't garden anymore.
We get to talk about it, at least. And most importantly I know of one more thing I'm going to have my future children do that I didn't do when I was a kid!
