The past weekend, with a little help from my friends , I started a vegetable garden in my backyard. It’s been a really long time since I did anything similar. The choice of what to plant was almost a lottery pick. Maybe next time I’ll learn to identify what makes sense to grow and what to buy instead. Here are the first sprouts of some of them.
