I tried planting edible landscaping this year, but it’s been working pretty poorly. I think I need figure out a better way to communicate the expectations with pedestrians.

So far 2 Cantaloupes have been taken well before ripening, an unripe green pumpkin was taken, an unripe bell pepper was taken, and they aren’t touching the ripe tomatos or strawberries. So I’m very confused.

Maybe I’m expecting them to have too high of a base knowledge of garden plants? I may just move the garden inside the fence and build a small pantry instead.

      Literally the only kind of raw tomato worth eating, store bought tomatoes are the worst.

        I have found my oppostie then. Raw tomatoes are the only type of tomatoes I just cannot eat. I find them revolting.

        Sluce em up and put some feta on top and into the pan. Great. Do literally anything that is not raw tomato and I will rat it.

          I meant garden fresh tomatoes are the only raw tomato worth eating, processed/cooked tomatoes are great.

            I cannot even stand home grown ones. Neither our own ones nor the ones from my grandma. There is just aomething about the sour watery raw tomato that is not to my liking.
