    Oh wow! When I was little and we lived at the beach there was a banana tree in the backyard with all the garden flowers and it had the best banana's the -one time- it bloomed. And then we decided to plant some corn seeds and I'm serious when I say home grown corn is so much better than corn from the grocer.
    You guys should try it sometime. =D

    My parents and grandparents and greatgrandparents always had vegetable and flower gardens and would never dream of buying store-bought. I was raised on home-grown food and nothing store-bought compares to the taste and I used to have a garden myself, but not anymore. It's too much work for someone whose favourite pastime for after work is to sit on the deck with a Margarita instead of weeding the garden.

    I would do, except you can't really grow much in a fifth floor flat. My dad though, has always grown his own vegetables, and I kinda miss eating that stuff. Though last year he ended up with so many runner beans, I ended up with a crapload of them too XD

    My garden is horribly overgrown. It's been more or less abandoned for the past year and a half.

    I grow concrete slabs in my garden. Then I sell them for a reasonable price. Do you want some of my home grown cotten concrete slabs?

    My parents keep a big garden and we grow alla sorts of vegetables: pea, beans, spinach, potatoes, salad and so on. And we also have cherry trees and the like so we have our own fruit, but sometimes we buy what won't grow or is out of season. A big and juicy white peach from a tree is soooo delicious.

    Do you prefer storebought food? WHY?

    We have a very large garden, it's the source for most of my photography.
