For those with a garden or helping out with one.
I'm mostly growing tomatoes and sweet peppers. Most cost savings over grocery/farmers markets + use a lot of them. Plus a crowd favorite when giving away to neighbors and friends.
Sweet peppers are really finicky btw.

I've only got a basil plant on my windowsill, but I help my parents a lot with their garden, which is massive.
This year we have: garlic, onions, corn, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, beans (green, yellow, and scarlet runners), two types of peas, two types of squash, radishes, turnip, cucumber, zucchini, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuces, plus a bunch of herbs like cilantro, basil, thyme, oregano, rosemary, and chives. Also rhubarb, ostrich fern, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and apples, which are all perennials. Hoping for our first real harvest of haskap berries this year. Yum!

Interestingly, they say if you put cayenne or any other hot spice on your plants it keeps critters away. Makes sense but I've never tried it.
