I went to Bowmanville for the annual Fall Glory Garden Tour with my friend Amy (AKA Assertagirl) of Playing in the Dirt, and – although the tour most prominently features flowers – I can personally attest that home vegetable growing thrives in Bowmanville and the surrounding area.
The gorgeous bowl above was Amy's parting present to me; she just popped out and tugged a few things off various plants in the backyard, saying sadly that she hadn't actually had time to do any serious gardening this year.
One of the stops on the tour was the Bowmanville Ecology Garden (45 Liberty Street North), a community garden with a children's section and a butterfly garden, where I took these shots. It's easy to forget how opulent Brussels sprouts are.
Tomatoes, of course, are always lovely...
...as is this collection of noble roots and bulbs, fresh out of the ground.
