As part of our Master Gardener training in 2012, we were required to do a group project demonstrating the impact of agriculture within the community. Hoping local residents would follow our lead, we constructed a raised vegetable bed abutting the front walk of the County Extension Office.
Here’s how it looked this past Monday:
A close-up of pineapple ( Ananas comosus) and cauliflower (Brassica oleracea.)
Collards (Brassica oleracea L.) with eggplant (Solanum melongena Black Beauty) toward the left of the pineapple.
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Purpureum) in the right hand corner
A view of the bed looking toward the street; note the green pepper plant (Capsicum annuum) on the lefthand side.

Until next time…..
