It's just a little concrete border/wall. It was there when we moved in. It had some bushes in it until a few months ago. I used my range rover to pull them up. Then I tilled it and planted 8 tomato plants, 3 cucumber plants, 2 pepper plants, and some herbs. It was really convenient that the little wall was there because we have groundhogs in our neighborhood. They will just dig right under a fence like that. With the fence right up on the wall they can't. They got under it once so I parked mowers and tires up against it to keep them out.

Groundhogs, you've got groundhogs??? Want me to bring the Malibu down and see if I can cook a couple of them for you? lol. BTW, that seems to have put a stop to them coming near enough to the house to get to the garden.

That's the ticket. I like 'em with potato bread, American cheese, 1" thick slices of tomato, an a little tiny bit of salt and some pepper. Yum!!

When I was a kid we ALWAYS had a 1 1/2 acre garden beside the house and a 3 acre garden out back. I HATED working in them. Now i've grown up a little i kinda miss the fresh veggies, fried squash, homemade pickles, home made sunflower seeds, banana peppers, okra, pickled green tomatoes(AKA chow-chow), watermelon, fried green tomatoes, sweet corn, whatever-fruit-we-wanted cobbler, greens...Sorry showing my "unsophistacated" southern side.

Well thanks! That's God's Sunshine, God's dirt, and God's rain. I weeded it a little and watered it a little. The rain and sunshine have been plentiful. Man are they delicious!!

Well, I must say, that you were gifted with a green thumb then;-) It's always nice when we bear the fruit of our labor, and you get to enjoy the fruit. If you weren't so far off my route to NY I would stop by to check out the garden and festiva in mid August.

[neanderpaul]

Hey I'm just 7 hours from ATL! I was just there visiting my wife's family. Stop in we'll eat tomato sandwiches or burgers like in the pics! You could check out my festivas and my buddy's festivas and his festar.... http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...=festar&page=2
