    He's really interested in garlic mustard. I'd love some, but if it's too much to ship, I understand.

    Allergy alternatives?

    Great suggestion, but I cook thai food without it (it tastes like soap to me). Unlike garlic, onions, eggplant, and ginger, it won't really make anyone sick. Still, appreciated just the same.

    Allergy alternatives?

    I am allergic to ginger and possibly coconut meat and my father is allergic to garlic, eggplant, and onions. Are there any alternatives to these that I can grow? My father would be very grateful to eat what he used to (sort of) again and I like to eat thai food.

    Any other tips? I'm moving and it may be into deer territory, but it's my first chance at chickens and a veggie garden.

    Very new to gardening--I would like some help choosing first veggies

    Nice to meet you! I hope I can meet more people soon. On the fence about beans, but still on the first suggestion. Do they need sticks or wire to climb?

    Very new to gardening--I would like some help choosing first veggies

    Short of weeding, watering, and planting things for science class, I haven't done much gardening. I haven't truly done anything on my own, but I've been given a chance to start a raised bed veggie box of my own recently. I want something easy to grow that will wind up on the dinner table...
