In recent decades, it used to be that vegetables only came from the store for most people. Sure, there were plenty of vegetable gardens tucked in the far corner of peoples backyards in the 1940s and 1950s; however, the number of those gardens rapidly diminished over the decades after that. Now there seems to be a resurgence of planting vegetables in ones yard to provide high quality food for America's dinner tables.
The article 'Traditional Freak Show' documents a remarkable ornamental horticulturist's decision to make a place in amongst all of those ornamental plants in his home garden for peas. Not just any peas of course!
Irvin Etienne, horticulturist at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, blogger, lecturer and national board member of the Perennial Plant Association outlines his decision and implementation in a lively and entertaining fashion in his article that you can access by clicking on the link below!
