So, what does everyone grow in their home gardens?
I myself grow corn, tomatoes, potatoes, bell peppers (don't do that well in MT though), squash, and green beans. I usually use the "three sisters" approach, along with square foot gardening. How about everyone else?

I grow tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, zucchini, and green beans in my garden. I don't currently use square foot gardening, just a couple hundred feet of space.

I grow tomatoes, onions, cucumbers and small amount of potatoes. The soil where I live is very much suitable for cultivation and are extremely nutrient.

Tomatoes and corn here. Next year, I will try a whole lot of different foods, to see how they do in my soil (kind of a nasty clay soil).

I no longer grow a garden. I live inside the city limits and can't shoot the rodents that loot it. The rabbits, raccoons and squirrels normally eat everything before it even yields any good food.

The rabbits, raccoons and squirrels normally eat everything before it even yields any good food. Try bloodmeal. It's a natural fertilizer that also naturally repels varmints, since it smells like blood to them (since it is actually dried blood). Used to have a problem with bunnies until I used bloodmeal. If that doesn't work, feral cats probably would!

We cultivate tomatoes in one area, and have a grape vine. We hope to grow some herbs but money is tight, so that might have to wait.

We have a large garden. We grow: tomatoes (hot house and grape), green beans (bush and pole), Peppers (sweet, green and hot), radishes, corn on the cob, squash, zuchinni, cucumbers, pumpkins, carrots, lettuce - I'm sure there is more... I just can't think of them. It is almost time to start the garden here in NY.
