Local Wednesday Blog Carnival May 9, 2012

This week I am starting a new blog carnival called Local Wednesday. Come link up anything that uses local ingredients or materials. You can link up a recipe, show off your garden, teach use how to make a wreath using tree branches, or anything else that you dream up. Show me what makes your local area special!

Today I am showing off my garden. This is garden bed #1 filled with garlic, chard, broccoli, melons, cucumbers, sweet peas, kale, mustard, lettuce, spinach, marigolds, arugula, fennel, carrots, anise hyssop, green onions, ground cherries, Asian greens, and tomatillos. I have been busy busy eating salad and starting stir fry bags for the winter time. I am anxious for my sweet peas to bloom. I look forward to this summer when I the tomatillos will produce lots of little fruit.

What have you been doing with local items?

Please link back to this post if you decide to add a link. Also, please spread the word about this new link up.
