Here's one of my favorites from this past year:

Garden Totals for 2017

I harvested some kohlrabi yesterday, and even though there are three or four neglected kohlrabi plants out there, I'm calling it a season.

Total pounds from our garden = 260!

Wow.  I'm kinda stunned, actually.  My goal was to top 150 pounds.

The two most generous garden givers (both of which we are still eating from the freezer) were zucchini (64 pounds from two plants) and tomatoes (105 pounds from six plants).



As usual, I did a lousy job of keeping track of expenses.  We purchased seeds, and I think Belovedest bought potting soil for starting seeds, which drives me nuts as, hello, it's dirt.  I have "$45.32" written on the Garden 2017 planning page, but I don't know what all that entails.

Suffice to say that we ate a lot healthier than than we would have otherwise, we had fun, we got outside, and it was totally worth it, for us anyway.
