I wonder, do they can stuff as well? Thats the only way to fully utilize a large gardens produce I think. And yes, I did eat all those tomatoes.
They sure do. Freeze a lot of it as well. Leeks, raspberries, drying spices, making cherry/apricot kompot, making marmelade.....
The only thing they complained about this year has been too many cherries. I'd know I had to pick like ⅓ of them.
we have a loquat tree(30+years from parents old house) from a layering, it produces alot of fruits, the bees go nuts for the flowers.
It's really quite a blessing to have people with such a wealth of knowledge about gardening in the family. It takes a lot of seasons to learn how to be so good at it.
My dad has all sorts of fruit trees and vegetables, I'm over here now trying to keep a rosemary alive, its supposed to me super resilient but it keeps drying up so I water it but maybe the clay dirt is too much for it.
Poor thing has been planted and removed like 5 times due to different house projects. Its like as soon as I plant it all of a sudden they want to use that space
I’ve seen rosemary grow in the desert without needing much other than an automated lawn (drip) sprinkler, on a timer like 3(?) times a week?
wild ones are likely evolved to grow in that environment over cultivated domestic variety, probably more robust.
We cooked with it. It was maybe a bit more robust (so slightly thicker, harder) but it had all the same flavor. Maybe even better, fresher than what I was used to.
My favorite was with potatoes and lamb.
Definitely! For example, a zucchini plant might give you a fruit per day for about 3 weeks, which is more than my family can eat. The options for us then are a) canning such as zucchini relish (highly recommend!) or b) grate it and freeze it for future baking (zucchini bread, egg bites, etc.)
