When I came to Canada, like the guy next door I wanted to have my own garden...I didn't have any idea of what I was doing, but after many summers,, now I am able to preserve my own tomatoes from my garden... I still buy couple of bushels in late August,,, but during the summer all my salads, I pick from my garden.
Is there anybody in the DR with home gardens?
Once in a conversation in SD I was told that planting fruit trees in ur backyard was a sign of no-class..... and that to be "in" I only needed a pool (I don't care about that opinion), but I am yet to see tomatoes, letuce or arugula gardens in JD.
Our house construction in JD is on hold,, but I let the guy who is cutting the weeds and keeping the land clean to plant yuca and papaya and auyama,,,,every time we come down either we have some of them or he called my parents for them to share his crop.
Why is this not a common practice?
I wish I have more time in TO before the frost sets in the fall so I can have more tomatillos (late harvest green tomatoes)......uhhhmmmm if I only live in the DR.
Are there any ex-pats with home gardens?
