Weekly Informal Challenge 164: Influential

IMG_7691 Tomatoes2

As far as I can remember, gardens were a necessity in the family, due to the depression era
and the need to can and freeze for the Winter.
My parents had fruit trees, flowers and a big vegetable garden.

Later I had a vegetable garden with the help of my hubby to get the garden ready
and help weed/ro-a-til.

This year, I only have just three vegetables: corn, tomatoes and cucumbers.
(due to the last years the garden was not doing well ...)
And my son has his basil.

Agree with Laine. With the tomatoes and cucumbers and basil, you've got the perfect salad. Wonderful captures of your garden. V.

Great shot of that basil!

I garden, more to honor my father than because of a deep love. I prefer wild plants, even the ones living in my lawn. :)

My family used to have fruit trees and a vegetable gardens. Maybe I should get back to gardening. Thanks for posting these inspiring images. I especially like your son's Basil. :)
