​And a Video

of my Organic Vegetable / Edible Gardens

I have had my own organic vegetable gardens in Phoenix, Arizona (Zone 9b) for 4+ years, and below are many photographs from my two organic vegetable gardens (one using a raised bed and containers while the other is almost completely potted). I have grown over 100 varieties and types of edibles/food--with more varieties ​being trialed now--of vegetables, ​fruit, ​culinary herbs, grains, seeds, peanuts, cacti, and 'medicinal herbs' (that's what they're called, but I believe that God designed *all* of his foods to create healthy bodies and that there's a spiritual component to health).
