Let me take a chance here to show you what I’m growing at my vegetable and herb garden.
Eating fresh-picked sweet-pepper or vine-ripened tomatoes is a life-altering experience. Besides, home-grown produce is more nutritious, it is an enjoyable outdoor activity especially for the kids.
Spending sometime gardening, watering the plants is so much fun and stress relief from our everyday duties. As for the kids, it’s very motivated task, filled with fun part when they sharing watering the plants, it’s like water games for them haha…
My husband helped me built three planter boxes this year, with plastic fence around it to protect the plants from the wild rabbits. We planted many vegetables and herbs.
In this little planter bed boxed garden at my backyard, there is some tomato plants and cherry tomato

At my backyard dick balcony, I grew some herbs in big pots.
Here is the citronella known as Mosquito Plant (we call it otra in arabic, and usually we put it in the hot tea, it gives the tea a very pleasant smell and taste, like early grey tea).
Here is some greek oregano.
And german thyme.
