One of the things I love about growing food in a small space is I can walk out onto my front porch and harvest foods we need for the next meal.
This morning, we harvested from our front garden a green bell pepper (first one of the season!), two jalapeños, a banana pepper, and black seeded simpson lettuce.
And from our back patio garden we harvested romaine lettuce, cilantro, oregano, and sage.
It wasn’t a big harvest, but it was the perfect amount we needed to make tacos for dinner! 😊
It makes me happy to grow a simple kitchen garden. At first, I didn’t think it would make much of a difference because we don’t have a regular sized yard.
But this gardening season has taught me it doesn’t matter if you have acres of land, a big back yard, or just a small patio, you can grow something!
If you have a small space, you can focus on growing kitchen ingredients like peppers, lettuce, herbs, and carrots for home cooking. You can even grow these plants on your front porch (like I do)!
Every little bit helps, and it will bring you so much joy! 😊
