This past spring we did fabulous with green beans, tomatoes, field peas, okra, summer squash, hot and sweet peppers and a little corn. Didn’t have to buy any of that at all. My winter squash did not do well compared to the past. This fall we are doing great with green beans, all greens and broccoli and cabbage, kohlrabi, tomatoes, lettuce, hot peppers, etc. Not time to dig sweet potatoes but expect after Dec we won’t have to buy any sweet potatoes for a while. The only produce we are buying are potatoes and the odd bag of mixed veggies. We seldom buy eggs cause of layers but they have slowed down since one of our ducks decided to set a nest. So we eat quite a lot out of the garden save for breads and meats. I don’t know what that comes out to percentage wise.
