I live in Southern Georgia and southern style recipes and seafood are my favorite. I have a garden that's about two hundred feet long and about 100 fee wide. I grow squash, watermelon, peppers, tomatoes, okra, eggplant, snap beans, and more during the summer and onions, potatoes, turnips, spinach and garden peas during the cooler months. My yard is full of pomegranate, fig, plum, and persimmon trees. The scuppernong and muscadines grow wild here and with a little help produce buckets full every fall.
