It's the middle of the {season} in {your hemisphere}.

How are things growing? Or not growing?

Any successes you'd like to share?

Any challenges that have made you learn?

Have you gotten to eat much of what you've grown?

How's it going fellow gardeners?

My kids absolutely loved when I told them they could just grab snap peas and eat them off the vine. It's been a few years since then, but I don't think more than one or two pods ever actually made it into the house.

It's a pretty magical thing to learn as a child. Food doesn't just come from the supermarket. You can grow it yourself. I like to sneak in the anti-capitalism wherever I can.
