What We Plant in Our Vegetable Garden

No food in the world tastes better than the food you grow in your own vegetable garden.

We have planted a vegetable garden on our homestead every year, for as many years I can remember.  I love having produce, fresh from the garden, to cook with.  Plus, I enjoy having canned, frozen, or dried fruits and vegetables that came from our garden all year long.

We are getting ready to plan this year’s vegetable garden.  As we were looking over last year’s crops, we thought it would be fun to share.

Here are some of the vegetables we planted in last year’s vegetable garden:

Sweet Corn

Tomatoes

Green Beans

Cucumbers

Green Bell Peppers

Cayenne Peppers

Cabbage

Butternut Squash

Summer and Zucchini Squash

Peas-Shelling and Sugar Snap

Leeks

Bunching Onions

Yellow and Red Onions
