I tried planting edible landscaping this year, but it's been working pretty poorly. I think I need figure out a better way to communicate the expectations with pedestrians.
So far 2 Cantaloupes have been taken well before ripening, an unripe green pumpkin was taken, an unripe bell pepper was taken, and they aren't touching the ripe tomatos or strawberries. So I'm very confused.
Maybe I'm expecting them to have too high of a base knowledge of garden plants? I may just move the garden inside the fence and build a small pantry instead.
they took a tourne knife in one hand, and the cantaloupe in the other hand. then starting from the top they began to spiral cut (poorly) thin shavings of rind.
they must have gone over it three or four times until it was mostly orange.
things didn't get interesting until the melon got all slippery and they not only almost dropped it 10 times, but also cut or stabbed themselves about 50 times.
total time to "peel", just about an hour.
Must truly have been an experience witnessing that.
like a train wreck in slow motion and zero casualties.
