Pops Vege Patch

My Grandfather had a vege patch the likes of which I have never seen equalled.
Growing up in the great depression with 14 siblings I suppose his family had to do whatever they could to save money. His father grew as much of their own food as possible and I think the habit stuck. He still had it going until he passed away a couple of years ago. I can remember as a kid raiding his vege patch-eating corn, beans, peas straight off the plants. Mum never had such success in getting us to eat our veges.
