Our Community Garden did very well! We had more tomatoes, corn, potatoes, zucchini, squash,onions, peppers, carrots, green beans, sweat peas, watermelon, and honeydew than we knew what to do with. Our freezer is full! Here is a pic of all the potatoes, the little girl on top is Ali. She is one of the "community garden" family kids. We grew reds and purple viking potatoes. They are so big! I have never seen ones this big in the store. All of these potatoes are feeding three families, and our portion is probably too much. We have already given lots away and have plenty more for the winter. Our Strawberries we only grew in our back yard. They were a huge success! We got about 6 bowl fulls and a few stragglers through out the end of the season. I froze some but we went Berry wild and ate them everyday. They were the best tasting I have ever eaten. I do have tons of canned tomatoes, as well as peaches. We found an empty farm house that has a peach tree just loaded with peaches. We and some friends went and picked them. We made peach salsa, peach pie filling, and froze the rest.
