Edible plants and herbs from our Vista, Farmer's Market. Cilantro, perennial Basil with clove scent, Society Garlic and Vietnamese Coriander.
When first thinking about joining the Compact, I worried about my love of gardening. Often I buy too many annuals that die within the season, just so I would have to buy again to fill up the spaces. It was wasteful, but I love to garden. So I made the stipulation with myself that yes I can still garden and buy plants but that they had to be either edible, herbal or native to my area. I will also allow myself to buy seed packets for annuals that I just can't do without, Snapdragons and Pansies to name a few. Now to watch these babies grow.

Wow! I really like how you worked your love of gardening into compacting. Edible plants can be beautiful plants too. I'm excited to watch your blog.
