Vegetable List – 2011

Vegetable Varieties for 2011

The following list is still somewhat a work in progress. I will update it if new varieties are added. One thing that’s obvious to me is that we are growing a lot of different Asian vegetables and quite a variety of lettuces and tomatoes. We harvested almost 20 pounds of Asian greens last year, and I would like to grow even more this year. And I try to have lettuce to eat year round. Last year we got 45 pounds of it. As for the tomatoes – who can have too many kinds of tomatoes?!?
