The best thing about gardening is, of course, yielding the fruits of your labor.

With vegetable gardening being one of the most rewarding, we are introducing some new exciting varieties.

Along with our old favorites, we’ve got peppers from around the world: ‘Marconi Rosso’, a sweet tasting Italian pepper; ‘Carmen’ a great pepper for roasting and selected for the 2006 All America Award; ‘Hungarian Spice’, from which genuine Hungarian paprika is produced; ‘Thai hot’, and ‘Pepperoncini’, a Greek pepper with just the right amount of heat. 

We are also growing ‘Goldbar Hybrid’, a straight neck summer squash; ‘Greybeard’ and ‘Golden Girl’ Zucchini as well as Spaghetti Squash; an nutritious low calorie substitute for pasta that when cooked and halved will yield strands of spaghetti like fiber.

This brings us to tomatoes – there are endless varieties. This season we will be featuring Green Zebra a green striped salad specialty; ‘Lemon Boy’ a mild flavored, wilt and root-knot nematode resistant fruit; ‘San Marzano’, a wonderful Italian sauce tomatoe and ‘Black Krim hybrid’ with a sweet, mild, and rich flavor.

All of these along with our Crimson Sweet and Sugar Baby watermelons will make tasty additions to any garden.
