Oh it's so easy to make. My favorite is to roast it. Line a baking dish with sliced white onion, then eggplant, then red peppers cut into quarters, then roma tomatoes cut in half. Add 5 garlic cloves cut in half, drizzle the whole thing with 1/4 cup of olive oil, and 2 tbsp Herbs de Provence, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Roast at 400F for 30-40 mins stirring often to allow all those veggies to breakdown and caramelize. Great with grilled meats! Enjoy!

Yes it really can come down to the soil. Every year (spring/fall) put down a mix of compost and fresh potting soil, and some worm castings and just keep doing that and your soil will improve! We had horrible soil when we began, and after a few years of taking care of it it really did get better! The mark of healthy soil are seeing a lot of worms when you dig, means there are a lot of nutrients, no worms, no nutrients. And yes you can get your soil tested too, that's always a good idea :)

Yes we have seen runners pop out of the strawberry pots :) As for the design, I was really inspired by the formal french gardens of the 18th century. My husband has a lot of books on them and he actually drew out the design. It' works well because we can get a lot of plants in there each season, while still keeping a tidy ornamental look. :)

Well yes, cedar bark really does help with the weds and also it keeps the moisture in the soil (so it doesn't evaporate with the heat of the sun) and it then decomposes so it adds to the health of your soil too! :) But another way to keep up with weeds is really just to "patrol" every day or so and pluck them out that way it doesn't build up! Also we don't get much rain here so that also helps!

Yes I thought that might be a fun "follow up" a winter garden tour! OK so the thing with herbs is that certain ones do better at certain times of the year: Summer: Basil, all types. Fall/Winter: Rosemary, Thyme, Spring: Dill, Chives and Parsley. Try grouping them this way seasonally, and I bet you will have better success! Also make sure they get lots of sun, and some "outdoor time" 1-2 hours outside per week. And good drainage is important too!

Aw love hearing that! Actually the plants would probably love the humidity! They also really love a lot of sun. At least 6 hours a day for most vegetables it what they need. I would check with your local plant store first to find out what varieties do well in your area. I didn't do this the first time and tried to plant things like broccoli which need more shade and cold. After doing more research I realized it was tomatoes and peppers, and other heat lovers I needed! So do check first :)

Sure just depends on where you live and when you want to eat it. Here in the states we like to have our pumpkins by at least Oct (for Halloween) or at the latest Nov (for Thanksgiving) and since I live in warm California there is no danger of cold weather. So yes you could plant it today if you lived in a temperate climate and were willing to wait at least 90 days before you see a pumpkin :) They do take a while to grow! But worth the wait :)

The okra are perennials and keep coming back each year. She also experimented with potatoes too, but they were always pretty small. We also have a section of the garden where oregano took over everything; it's very much like your mint plant so be careful about that too if you plant oregano. We also grow green onions too
