We harvested 28 pineapple, bananas, key limes, figs, persimmons, guava, loquats (two trees) we dehydrate some and make sweet pickle loquats, papaya, blueberry, new this year two strawberry plants, chives, basal, lavender, blueberries, mint. I am sure that I missed a few other eatables.

I forgot two trees, a mango and a avocado. No fruit from either yet, but the trees are from seed and only two years old.

I grew those in Philly. They grow better up there. We rented a house for the summer and it had an awesomw yard and good soil. Here is Terry standing next to some in pots but there were a lot more growing in the side yard in the ground.

If you guys really want to put out some tomatoes down here, look into dutch bucket hydroponics. Eliminates a lot of the nutrient and pest issues that come with the territory of gardening in Florida.

I didn't grow a garden the past year, but I did the few years previous to that. I interned on a aquaponics farm in college, and it really opened my eyes to the benefits of aqua/hydroponics.

I did a side by side study of growing maters in the ground vs in dutch buckets in 2012. The hydroponics system produced fruit 3 weeks earlier than the in ground plants, and produced twice as well.
