So my brown thumb and I are going for take 2 on growing our own vegetables.
I had a tiny bit of success last year and managed to grow some broccoli, a couple of zucchinis and 1 yellow squash.
My issue is this:
If my broccoli (or tomato or pepper) row is successful, I now have… what, maybe 2 weeks to eat 9 or so heads of broccoli before it goes bad?
Is there anything I can do to enjoy the vegetables of my labor for longer? I could probably freeze broccoli (could I?), but I can’t freeze tomatoes.
I work so hard, and I want to be able to enjoy the things I grow.
just wondered if your a person with arthritis in your hands or knuckles from moderate to severe, rheumatoid or osteo – are you still able to use your hands to grip solidly? or use tools like knives or garden implements or hammers or any other kind of tool?
