From Garden…to Mouth!!!

• Jetto’s Patch is a quarter acre block turned into a food production factory.
• Michelle grows peanuts in her garden, and they are great for children to grow, too. Once you have harvested your peanuts, wash them doen, dry them out for a few weeks and they are ready to eat.
• You can grow capers at home. It is a costal plant and provides great ground cover.
• Lilli Pilli trees, or Chinese Apples, as Trevor calls them, produce sweet little fruits for up to five months that you can pick and eat on the go.
• Tuscan Kale is also in abundance at Jetto’s Patch-it’s delicate flavor is great in salads, and great for your insides!!
• If salad is not your thing, you can have the taste of ice-cream and avoid the calories by planting an Ice-cream Bean tree-just have a nibble on the white flesh inside the bean!
