Here are a few photos of our Living the Gourmet victory garden.
So far, we have tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, squash, strawberries, green beans and sugar snap peas.
We have our herbs in flower pots, separate from our little garden patch. There is still some more work left to do, but we are very proud of all the hard work that has been put into our Living the Gourmet garden.
It is so satisfying using fresh home-grown herbs in my recipes! I love going out to the backyard picking some fresh basil, parsley, sage, Italian oregano, Greek oregano and so much more.. . I cannot wait for the tomatoes to grow !
What's growing in your little garden?

Your garden looks wonderful. Gardening is definitely a lot of work, but like you said, so rewarding.
I have not planted one thing yet this year. I hope to soon.

Growing your vegetables is a splendid idea. I don't have a backyard in my house..so don't do much of gardening..
I have a question for you..i am interested in embedding the Foodista widget in my blog post. I have the code. Does it need to go at the end like a default signature?I want to contribute more to the foodista. Could you please point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Gardening is hard work but it's rewarding! So far I have lots of herbs, tomatoes, string beans, red onion, chile peppers and zucchini.

You have a good size garden there. I wish I could get tomatoes to grow. My mom always has such good tomatoes, but she's up north. I have several herbs in pots, but my rosemary. Rosemary grows well here and they are the size of shrubs. I do have my bananas, lemon tree and mango if that counts.
We'll be expecting an update on how well it's growing!

Thank you everyone! It was a family job though, everyone did their part.
Gardening is just the best kind of therapy!
Good luck with your gardens!
Happy Planting~

We have cucumbers, corn, peppers, tomatoes, and for herbs (also separate and in pots): oregano, lemon thyme, dill, and chives.
I would love to try strawberries and those wonderful sugar snap peas. I grew those one year and I just loved eating them right after a picked them.
