Lushly lettuce





These are the lettuces flourishing in the vegetable bed in our front yard. Having read My Tiny Plot I am inspired to grow even more of these leafy beauties. Think of all the salads I can make and toss and dress this summer.

The community garden system (or allotments) seems to me a fantastic way to grow your own produce if you have even a little bit of spare time. Failing that, a kitchen garden or potted herbs on the window sill would be lovely...and useful.

But wait! Link-hopping has led me to this site which reviews square-foot gardening. Might be worth looking into.

Your lettuce looks lovely! I have a terrace garden this summer: tomatoes, herbs & bell peppers. Would <3 to have lettuce to add to the mix!
