I started small this year. If this planting goes well, I'll expand next year. We have Roma tomatoes - my favorite kind, eggplant, and artichokes.
Part of the point of having a vegetable garden is to save money. The plants, potting soil, and one pot (I had the other two) cost me $33. At current market prices, I estimate that these plants need to yield 10 lbs of tomatoes and 3 each of eggplant and artichoke for me to break even. That doesn't sound like much, but for me it will be a small miracle.
If this does work out, look for many Italian and Mediterranean recipes this summer.
