urban townhouse garden

I like to grow stuff. We live in a townhouse, and we don't have a lot of area for gardening, but we make it work. I usually start some seeds inside in late March or April when Spring fever gets the best of me. I always say I will take pictures of those tiny tomato seedlings, so spindly and weak-looking, because in a few months they are huge plants with amazing biomass - almost as tall as I am with tons of fruit. It's something of a miracle, really. Here are some early garden pictures from this summer:

It's amazing what you can grow in a very small amount of space!
