This year, we’re just growing a few things in the gardens. I’m very happy to finally have our first year with lots of blueberries! They aren’t quite ready yet, but they are finally growing! It took a few years for them to grow into something more than a 3 blueberry producing bush. Can’t wait to see them turn a nice shade of bluish purple and turn them into blueberry jams, muffins, pancakes, and whatever else I come up with.
We also have grapes growing for the first year ever! They are so cute watching them get bigger from the little tiny “are those grapes??” clusters we originally saw.
And lastly we have a mishmash of tomato plants. I wasn’t going to do any this year but saw some clearanced and droopy outside of Publix and decided to bring them home to love. They are doing pretty good as well. I love fresh tomatoes!
So there you have it! That’s all that is growing this year. What is growing at your house or what do you wish you could grow?

That sounds incredible! I haven’t tried growing herbs yet. That’s exciting!
