Garden Salad

Kelli from animal-friendly eating writes, "I have started my very own organic vegetable garden to stay lean. I am following a method called 'square foot gardening' where you can grow up to 16 different vegetables in a 4-foot by 4-foot space! Here is a picture of my first salad harvested from gourmet bibb, romaine, and red sails. I'm so proud. I have managed to inspire my best friend to start her own garden, and I hope to inspire many, many more. =)"
