Actually this is the third tomato so far this season. It’s nice to smell that “tomato smell” again and not smell the rock hardness and the ripening additives that are on some tomatoes. It’s no wonder that so many people now have allergies to store bought produce – so many addivitves. The “alley Garden” is really doing well. I will probably “prune” some herbs next week and take bunches to the distribution point of the CSA we belong to. Here are some other photos of the herbs we are growing. All in the alley.

Chives, Curly Parsley, Greek Oregano, Coriander

Sage and Thyme

Greek Oregano and Lemon Thyme

So there you have some things you can grow in a very limited space. It’s just so nice to see others pickup on the idea of using these spaces. There are several that have “sprung up” in our neighborhood. Think Local … Buy Local … Eat Local! Cheers.
