I did not forget about you. Promise.
Sorry I've been away so long! Life sometimes just takes over! So let's get back to business.
Here are last year's garden harvested totals. My husband said maybe we shouldn't even post the totals because they are slightly embarrassing. (sad face). In our gardening defense, we happened to have a few trips (some unexpected) over our growing season that collectively added up well over a month away from our garden. The good news was that we installed a drip irrigation system that worked like a dream. But the bad news is that it seemed to not only water our vegetable plants but also watered the weeds taking over too!
Here is a glimpse of total pounds of food harvested from our past years.
