Companion planting...yes so important, would like to talk about that more
And what plants grow best in what types of soil.
I want to plant so many things
How does soil communicate?
Eggplant/aubergine is also poisonous when raw. It is originally from India and its name / journey as a loan word across the world is so fascinating

Here is a nice mint
There is a little bit of basil and some other little things also growing in it

This is raspberries

This is also raspberries and I ate one and it was DELICIOUS the chipmunks were right

That nub without a raspberry on it is the one I ate a few days ago I got to it before the chipmunks did

I feel very much when the animals eat our gardens with us they are gardening with us they are pruning the garden they are making the garden grow bigger and braver and more nourishing, we should always be very glad to share our gardens with the animals who are our honored neighbors

Here are a lot of things I am not sure if the thing on the bottom left is maybe kale, I think it tastes like kale and I don't seem to be dead having tasted it
On the right close at the bottom right there is another raspberry
And then the bigger bramble also on the right with darker leaves is BlackBerry which is reaching out reaching out reaching out many tendrils gosh and stickers thorns very clever
And then there is Big healthy green onions on the left more in the middle
And there are a lot of leaves that I think look like violet leaves but I'm not totally sure and some other things that look like violet leaves but are different than violet leaves

On the left is definitely arugula and next to it is rainbow chard
Then some heirloom tomato plants my mother received from a neighbor
And then all the way on the right there are some things I am not sure what they are but when I ate them I didn't die and they tasted spicy and good

This is a delicious wonderful catnip I am so glad it's still alive and I wish feed it nutrients I wish to find nutrients to feed it so it can grow big and strong catnip this morning I ate it in a little salad with lots of other of these leafy things blessings blessings to leafy beings

This is a beautiful pungent mint growing very strong and some very pretty little flowers blessings

In the front here there are a few pokeweed plants I pulled with my bare hands and have not experienced any negative consequences, though I am careful not to rub my skin at the leaves and I am careful not to touch it with broken skin
Behind the two pokeweeds is the lemon balm the lemon balm is growing growing growing growing growing

I would like to know what these beautiful 7-point leaves are, I do not recognize them, I think they are so pretty
I have wondered if the scalloped leaves in the bottom right are Violet leaves but they are not the same shape as Violet leaves I have been familiar with so I'm not totally sure what they are either and I have not yet dared to pick them to eat them

This is growing near the pepper plants but the leaves are differently shaped, the leaves are longer and skinnier than the pepper plant leaves
The pepper plants are in the top right corner
But this plant seems different and I have seen it a few places, and I wonder what it is
What its name is and how we may honor it

In the top left those are the pepper plants and to the right of them is the growing growing growing lemon balm blessings

I am very very curious about this! It has very sharp tiny tiny thorns on it! Look at all those beautiful Vine leaves all of the curling all of the little round and then the beautiful triangles it is so beautiful! And those are my toes

This is a good friend mushroom I found and would like to know its honorable name
