Today’s post is a mystery because it’s another one of those spring excitement purchases that I don’t really know what I bought and am growing. Anyone have a clue? I guess that’s a side benefit of my #30DayNatureChallenge - it’s giving me a good reason to check out what I’m growing!

Day 2: 30 Days of Nature

One of the reasons I love the Spring season in Chicago is because I get really excited about starting my garden. This year I decided to go all out with tomatoes because they’re easy for me to grow and I love eating them.

I did the bulk of my tomato plant buying at the new City Grange shop and I bought two more “mystery” tomato plants from the Kilbourn Park Organic Greenhouse plant sale. These yellow tomatoes are one of the “mystery plants” and one of my favorite tomatoes this season.

I’m going to try and save the seeds like my mother and brother recommended and see if I can successfully grow them next year.

#30daynaturechallenge is off to a good start. Day 2 of 30, done! ✔️ ☺️ 🍅
