Next crops seeds, and more collards!

I went out this morning to cut some more collards! They just keep on keeping on!!! This bunch, which sure looks wonderful, is going be delivered to my hubbys office tomorrow. He has a few people who love them, so it has been fun to share! I cut them and they are soaking in cool water to keep crisp till then. Aren't they gorgeous???

I was at Home Depot today and found these purple Cow Peas. They look so pretty...I just had to have them. They are climbers. My other package of Pole Beans are a bush variety. Can't wait to get them set up as soon as my collards are done.

I am doing a feedback survey which was mentioned on my Home Depot reciept. I could win a 5,000 dollar gift card from. I already know what I would buy. My tire gardens would be used for flowers only, and I would buy 6 3x6 raised beds, wonderful soil to fill them, vegetable seeds or plants, and lawn and plant fertilizers (since they are so costly these days). I would become a bigtime organic vegetable farmer. I would be very grateful if I win, Home Depot!!!

    Wow, look at those greens. Good luck with your Pole Beans. I grew them one year and had a great luck with them. So prepare yourself. They produce a lot. : ) I hope you win the Home Depot gift card. That would be sooooo cool.
    Happy Friday and have a good weekend.

    Hi Julie, Pole Beans are my favorite beans... When yours comes in and you fix some, let me know and I'll come for dinner... ha ha (I wish!)

    I have eaten Purple Hull Peas many times --but don't think I've heard of Purple Cow Peas... Wonder if it's the same thing with another name????

    SO--you and hubby have been waterfalling in GA??? Glad you saw Anna Ruby... Did you see Minihaha or Amicalola?????? There are fabulous ones in the North GA mountains --and also in NC.

    Hope you have a great weekend.
    Hugs,
    Betsy
