THE HAPPY FROG GARDEN PATCH is dedicated to the fun of growing an abundance of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables. Located at the Common Ground Community Garden in Safety Harbor, FL, the garden was started in April 2010 by Dr. Shawn Hollander, an optometrist, and owner of Safety Harbor Optical. Lending a tremendous helping hand is garden assistant Sandy Kracov, whose help has enabled the expansion of the garden to almost double its original size. The raised bed garden now measures 36' x 10'.

Serious heirloom tomatoes have arrived
Seriously, I couldn't fit all the tomatoes that were ready for picking today into this one bin--there were more than you see here! The Brandy Boy's and Brandywine Pinks and Delicious that were started from seed on Dec. 1, 2010 have arrived! I have been checking up on them 2 or 3 times a day just to insure picking them at the peak of vine ripeness. This second wave of tomatoes eclipses the first, which were just a few compared to today. There will be a third wave of tomatoes in just a few days! Here is just an approximate indication of what I picked today.
The 3 cucumbers picked today brings the total to 113.
The total large tomato count is now at 30.
The total zucchini count is also now at 30.

Hi Dr. Shawn Hollander,
I love your blog.... I read all of your posts. Keep blogging! I had a quick question: Would you be willing to sell me some of your crops ---- I would be delighted to see how great they taste.
Thanks,
Scott
Dear Scott,
I would be happy to sell you a sampling of the variety of the fresh produce that we have grown.
You can reach me at the garden on any given Sunday morning between 9 and 10 AM.
Many friends and family have had the opportunity to eat the veggies from my garden, and unanimously, all are amazed at how much better the taste is compared to store bought, commercially grown produce.
Thanks for your inquiry.
Dr. Shawn Hollander
