Gramps Farmers Market


My dad has quite the green thumb. He started his garden about 5 years ago. It has since turned into an avid hobby and he is very proud of it (we all are). When we are in town Ava will help Gramps in his garden. She seems to always pick the “baby” vegetables that are not ready, but Gramps doesn’t seem to mind as long as she is enjoying herself. Friday night was a special treat for Ava. She had her Mimi & Gramps plus Grandpa Ricky came to stay the holiday weekend with us in La Porte. So Ryan & I cooked an amazing dinner using vegetables from Gramps garden.

 This year Gramps in growing:
Eggplant
Carrots
Tomatoes
Jalapenos
White Onion
Corn
Cucumber
Zucchini
Squash
Potatoes
Radishes
Okra
Once this season is over, Gramps will jar pickles and okra.
