I hope our turnips do better this year; I'd like to try that!<br /><br />I wrote a month's worth of menus for each season, using seasonal items from my garden (and everything else from my pantry). We live in a warm climate, so we can grow year-round, but if you don't, check out the book Four-Season Harvest for ideas on growing year-round (the author lives in Maine and harvests food all year!)<br /><br />I don't have a big garden; I have just under a quarter acre lot (which is a huge lot for where I live). In my backyard, I have 33 fruit trees. Today I harvested mission figs, apricots, green plums, blackberies, tomatoes, and oregano. I plan my garden so that I always have something fresh.<br /><br />Seasonal produce is a big difference in savings!The Prudent Homemakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13229771550830911638noreply@blogger.com
