I just made kale chips yesterday... I don't know what else to make with kale though seeing as I hate cooked greens. any suggestions?

you have a lot of the same stuff we're growing!

If you have issues with pollinating like we do give the plants a shake and it'll help with pollination. We have literally, no bees.

Looks great! The only thing really thriving in my yard right now is my potato tire, lol.

Em -> Kale is great for smoothies!

Em, I use kale in smoothies. I don't like cooked greens, either, unless it's a wilted dandelion salad OR spinach on pizza. :)

Zaira, we have a pretty traditional garden for our area. There were a lot of things I really wanted to grow, but as a first timer, I didn't want to get in over my head with plants that were going to be really high maintenence. I started shaking my plants a little bit and I feel better about our lack of bees. Thank you for the idea!

Kory, our potato plants are HUGE. I don't know what is normal by way of potatoes, but I can't wait to dug up those spuds when the time comes! Don't you have radishes, too?
