Ty Mellon replied to Greg Kemper's discussion Fruits/vegetables that grow well in the south in the group DFW FOOGS
"Well, DFW is a little different than Austin in that you get more freezes, ice, etc. It's a little late for "FALL planting", but there are a number of things you can plant if you are expecting the remainder of the year to be mild. Some…"

"I know there's controversy over genetically-modified farm products in the food chain. Frankly, I haven't done enough research to formulate an opinion, but I do know that our ancestors got along just fine with the way God designed our food…"

Fruits/vegetables that grow well in the south

So seeing that I'm new to this gardening thing, I don't want to waste time and money on fruits and veggies that don't do well in the clay of DFW and the climate of the south. Any advise on what does great here and what not to plant?

Greg,
Good afternoon! It has been a while since we 'chatted' and I thought I'd see how things are going! Spring is coming up and there are a lot of great things happening. Say Hi when you can and let us support your gardening efforts this spring!

Greg,
Thought I'd check to see how your efforts are going and get your feedback on the book you were reading. I encourage you to stay involved as we are very close to launching the marketplace, among other cool things. Not sure if you can tell, but we also switched up a the look of the site a bit. Let's talk when you can!

Thanks!

Greg,
That is very cool! There is another book I might recommend called "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver. Very well written, lots of facts. Good book. Can I ask you to take some pictures of the "before, during, and after" process? We might even want to video interview you for an upcoming video bumper for the website!

Greg,
Good evening! Thanks for joining FOOGS! We are at a great point here at FOOGS where we are very close to launching the online marketplace where people can trade their backyard goods with one another. The next step is a provider program where you can actually see your produce 'in action' at a local restaurant that wants to provide local food as part of a seasonal menu.

Keep checking in and we'll get you up and running VERY soon!


Thanks Again!!
Ty
