Grandma’s Organic Vege Garden
Below are some of the pictures taken during the weekend at my grandma’s organic farm. She’s an expert when it comes to growing organic vegetables. My grandma did all the plowing and planting all by herself despite of having an eye-condition that affects her vision. Every morning and evening without fail, she tends to her garden so that we could have fresh, chemical-free, home-grown vegetables on our diet. I especially love the harvesting part! Enjoy the pictures!

Only when you try it, you know how hard is to grow one

That’s true Pin. Sometimes, the crops won’t grow as expected. Recently, my grandma tried to plant pumpkins but they just stopped growing prematurely. So, my grandma tried another method and they are growing now!

even pumpkin?
Fantastic!
We only have chillies, pandan leaves, curry leaves and all the other easy-to-grow plants… but pumpkin!? #applaud#

Thanks for visiting my blog Lyne! Yes, pumpkin! Amazing what we can plant here in our country. The tropical weather is perfect for growing many types of veges!

Where is Grandma’s farm located? I also grow organic veggies and have a bunch of pumpkin seeds I have saved from past harvest and would be willing to share with her. I am located in N FL. I have growing a green that looks like her Chinese Green.
I have no idea what it is called or how to use it other then a lettuce substitute. Thanks; … LT

Hi Lynn, hope you’re doing fine. My grandma’s farm is in Malacca town, a small historical state in Malaysia. I’ve seen your pictures of the Organic Seminole Pumpkins! They are beautiful, like nature’s work of art. My grandma is gonna be so happy if she can grow such lovely pumpkins as yours.
We always stir-fry the Chinese greens and they’re so easy to plant. Usually, i’ll just smash up some garlic and stir-fry them on a heated pan with some cooking oil. Stir-fry the garlic until you can smell the aroma and when the garlic turn’s a bit golden brown, add in the cut Chinese greens. Add some salt or oyster sauce to taste. It goes well with steamed white rice. =)
Cheers!!!
