I bought my kale and cabbage as starts - I should do more from seed, but I don't get motivated in time.

A local botanic garden - Powell Gardens - is opening a Heartland Harvest Garden to demonstrate the fruits and vegetables that can be grown in our area. Last spring they had their display beds filled with veggies in pattern, like Villandry (a chateau in the Loire Valley in France), and I'm sure this year they are even more elaborate. The new garden will feature a restaurant serving produce from the garden and orchards. It opens in two weeks - I can hardly wait to see what they do. This photo of one of the beds was taken May 24 last year.
