Mini foodtopia was NOT a success!

Mini-foodtopia was full of learning experiences! Most of them are NOT positive! After throwing every seed under the sun into the ground, and watering and weeding for weeks, the only thing I feel great about is thanks to me there are going to be a hundred butterflies around the house. Caterpillars ate through nearly every vegetable I grew!

On a brighter note, my jalapenos are doing great, and so is the lettuce. The beans and green beans did just OK. I have to say, if I put it ALL together and made them into meals for our family, we would have 1-2 meals. The pumpkins and tomatoes got demolished by caterpillars, and unfortunately, I do not have time to pick caterpillars off one by one for hours on end.

The corn's growth was stunted. Not many successes anywhere... which brings me to my next mission and my next post...
