I love carrots and next year I hope to grow some tomato.
We love to grow tomatoes, strawberries, corn and more. Next year we'll be expanding our garden so hopefully we'll have even more veggies - enough to keep us in salads the whole summer. I find that if I do two or three plantings a lettuce - a couple of weeks apart each - I'll have enough lettuce to last for a couple of months.

Tomatoes, our family enjoys growing these all summer long.
I love an herb garden; rosemary is one of my favorites. It grows into a small bush and comes up year after year. I raise parsley, but would like to succeed with cilantro, too.
We grow potato's and tomato's.two acres in all.
My favorite is tomatos they seem easier than anything.
I'm crazy about zucchini and squash and I'd love to try it next year.
My favorite is cherry tomatoes, but next year I'll try zucchini -- I really like vegetables that produce in abundance so that I can share with friends.
I don't want to wait 'til next year but am thinking of trying to grow an interesting variety of cherry tomatoes in my AeroGarden this fall. I couldn't figure out which of the seeds on Burpee's site were for vining varieties and if any were compact bushes -- any advice?
Broccoli...we tried five plants this year for the first time, and we have yellow heads that won't turn green. Plus, I read that all the bugs that eat the outside leaves will leave droppings all over your nice head of broccoli, and you're supposed to really wash them well! After I read that...I'm wondering if I even want to try broccoli again next year. Maybe the Burpee website will have my answer. I'm headed there now!
Carrots, carrots and more carrots. One summer I even turned orange! *LOL* I'm gonna try spinach! Thanks.
I love growing tomatoes, next year I think I'll try cucumbers and squash!
I love growing Green Beans!! Nothing beats some steamed fresh green beans with a little butter!!
Great giveaway!

I grow tomatos and have tried many things. I will stick it out with my tomatoes
We love growing tomatoes. They taste much better fresh (and they're salmonella free)
I've used Burpee products since I was a child. Mom always used them and told me that they were the best and she's right (of course). I love to grow tomatoes. I now have 8 huge tomatoes plants in my garden and I love to give them to my friends and neighbors. I've been fighting a battle with those nasty looking black grasshoppers but seem to have won the battle for now.
Thank you for the nice giveaway.
I love to grow tomatoes, but I would really like to try some zuchini and yellow squash again. The last two times I tried them the vine borers got to them.
Tomatoes are my favorite to grow. Maybe next year, I'd also like to try growing string beans...another favorite of ours. Thanks so much for this giveaway.

Carrots and bell peppers.

This year I've added summer squash, watermelon, canteloupe, and cukes. Tomatoes are still a fav, though!
I have only grown perenials in the past, some with seeds I purchased at Burpees. If I had to choose a vegetable, I would pick tomatoes. they are your biggest bang for hte buck. The taste of a tomoato, warm off of teh vine is incomparable.
cardeb2@verizon.net
I grow tomatoes and do pretty well. I tried peppers too this year, but the deer keep eating my plants. I'm going to try again next year.
Nothing beats tomatoes from your own garden.

I love cucumbers and grew them this year for the first time. They turned out wonderful. Next year I would like to try to grow green beans. Yum!! Thanks for the chance to win. ecghick@yahoo.com
Tomatoes are my fave to grow but we've got some nice herbs too.
I like our homegrown tomatoes!
Tomatoes grow well here (even thought they are a fruit). Next year we'll try eggplant.
I always manage to grow cherry tomatoes and usually some green peppers, too. My favorite thing to grow is sweet peas, but I never get to cook any because everyone just loves them fresh off the vine.
green peppers and tomatoes
i am gonna try for watermelon, we had them in our backyard when i was a kid
I want to try heirloom tomatoes.
Gardening is my passion.
This year I planted eggplant for the first time and really enjoyed the "fruits" of my labor. Next year I want to try cantalupe!
southernlady823@yahoo.com
This year, we tried planting beans, but that didn't work out so well. Next year, we're going to be planting watermelon, since my sister is pregnant with her first child, and the watermelon will help cool her off!
We would like to try sunflowers again. The first time we tried they didn't do so good because of lack of sun and insects. Contact scott(at)roxette(dot)org OR callarse_1(at)yahoo(dot)com Have a nice day
Pablo
I grow tomatoes every year.
with the recent scares, I'm real glad we grow our own tomatoes
I grow a lot of fruits and veggies and either can or freeze them Right now I'm doing up Burpees Heirloom tomatoes and they are wonderful.They are so sweet and juicy Nothing is better then homegrown tomatoes.
I also love wax beans- you don't see them very much and love to mix them with the green beans.
Oh and spagetti squash---yummy and so healthy for you instead of pasta

I would love to grow my own tomatoes. Used to do this when I lived in England but am concerned about the Florida bugs.
eggplant yea cucumbers would be good
Tomatoes are the best. titanicluck at gmail dot com.
i would like to grow cucumbers.
We always have done well with yellow squash and zucchini. Next we are going to try a few different varieties of tomatoes. I can't wait!
Tomatoes are my favorite to grow because they practically grow themselves. Grape, and all the different kinds. I always wanted to try artichokes, but the seeds need to be started in February and whose thinking of the garden then?
I would LOVE to grow some heirloom broccoli raab. What a great appetizer (or even meal) it makes with some garlic and olive oil. YUM!
I love to grow tomatoes. Next year I'm going to try growing brocolli.
Tomatoes! We just can't get enough of them in the summertime.
I love to grow strawberries,basil,tomatoes,
cucumbers and green onions.
Next year I would love to grow some carrots.
I started some strawberry plants so this year we have fresh strawberries to eat everyday for a few weeks. The weeds are hard to keep up with and clipping off the runners is a never ending job.
I grow zucchini because my friend who has a Salmon boat in Alaska loves my zucchini bread. I bake he gives me fish. Thanks for the chance.
eggplant this year,cucumbers next year
Well, after the salmonella scare this summer, we tried to get tomato plants at all the garden centers - they were sold out! So next year I am buying lots of tomato plants VERY EARLY in the season!
carrots which are my favorite, next year I'd like to try growing different types of peppers

Tomatoes are my favorite because they're so easy to grow, but next year I want to try adding lettuces for fresh green salads all summer long :) *Thanks* for the giveaway!

Tomatoes, nothing tastes better fresh from the vine.
This year we are trying to do a cottage garden in the front and on th e sides of the house. We planted herbs and edibles intermingled. Next year we would like to add some endive, squash,and green beens. We are hoping to do a little more intensive planting,along with some trellis type of things. So we will have plenty to eat and put away, especially with combining some veggies into the herb and flower beds.
I love growing cherry tomatoes; next year, I hope to grow more veggies, especially cukes.
I like watching my tomatoes grow!
Zuchini it grows so well i guess thats bcuz it is next too my compost pile
nothing better than a garden fresh summer tomato,,,maybe hot peppers next year!
I love growing tomatoes, so this year I've got Early Girl ones and Brandywines (a heirloom variety). I've just now finally got a tomato starting on the vine!
I tried for zuchinnis & pumpkins, but those all bit the dust with the awful weather we've had this year. Next year I'll try again! :)
I love to grow onions, because they are hardy and taste sooooo good!
I love fresh herbs they can be grown year round, Maybe some type of tomatoes next year. thanks for the contest. Wonderful music on your website, very relaxing.
I'm mainly a tomato gardener.
Always do tomatoes in patio buckets, also was so surprised to see the herbs all come back from last year, what a great treat that was. Next we will try watermelon, love it and hear it does pretty well here in New Jersey.
I haven't planted any veggies for a couple of years. I would like to start back by trying some potted grape tomatoes. They are so easy for my husband to take in his lunch.
I love to grow tomatoes and sweet banana peppers!!
Carrots....so yummy! I plant them every year and we always have so many we don't know what to do with them. They end up going into lots and lots of carrot cakes ( and carrot muffins, carrot casseroles, carrot salad, ect..)!

I like to grow tomatoes because they taste so fresh right out of the garden.
I really enjoy growing and eating kale. It is so tasty, nutritious and it just makes me feel so good to handle and eat.
There's nothing quite like a good Jersey tomato!
I just throw the seeds from vegetables I use in a couple of places and see what comes up. Cherry tomatoes and Squash seem to do the best.
Maybe I should get some good seeds for bigger tomatoes to go with some squash.
I would love to try zucchini next year, as I love both the squash and the flowers battered and deep fried!
keeponwinning(at)gmail(dot)com
I plated corn this year and that has to be my most favorite. Next year I want to plant tomatoes!
Next year we'd like to try tomatoes. We tried two years ago but we had to plant them at the edge of the yard bordering the neighbor's house in order to get enough sun and their kids kept messing with them so they didn't do well at all. This time we'd like to put them on a different side of the house that's safer and gets great sunlight. We want to try a few varieties including heirlooms.

I love to plant tomatoes and fresh basil. I slice the tomatoes and top with fresh basil and feta cheese. I then drissle basalmic vineger over the whole thing and eat.
I would like to try to grow spinach.
penguinchick@comcast.net
I like to grow hot peppers since they're pretty easy. I'd like to try cucumbers next year. I love cukes!!!
kseger(at)charter(dot)net
green beans and tomatoes are my favorite crop
I'd like to grow some zucchini!
I love home grown tomatoes and making tomatoe sandwiches and stuffing them with cold chicken salad or cottage cheese.
There are very few things that I love better than tomatoes fresh out of the garden. The ones you buy usually have about as much flavor as a cardboard box. Thanks so much for this giveaway.
Woo Hoo hats to match our gardens How cute is that?
I love to grow tomatoes and would love to try to grow artichoke because it is a cool looking plant
I would like to grow leaf lettuce next year.

I would love to try growing corn, eggplants, and tomatoes!
We grow tomatoes and green peppers and i would like to try some asparagus
I love to grow tomatoes. garrettsambo@aol.com
I love fresh tomatoes, so I grow them every year, also cucumbers and lettuce, for salads. Cute hat. Thanks for the contest!
I love to grow any kind of peppers, bell, hot, banana you name it. Also tomatoes and corn but corn takes up a lot of space.
My favorite things to grow are my perennial herbs...put them in once and they just keep coming back! Yearly, though, I like to grow tomatoes of all sorts and peppers in my deck pots. They do very well in there and it keeps the bunnies out.
I love to grow squash. ITs very easy and produces lots! :)
We've been growing zuchinni and tomatoes for a few years. This year we are trying watermelon. Next year maybe we'll try green chilis that NM is famous for.
I am really enjoying the music on your site. It makes me not want to leave.
Besides flowers the only thing I grew from Burpee seeds was mint. I would like to try corn and cucumbers and maybe squash.
Thanks for the contest.

I tried to grow everything this year, peas, pumpkins, herbs, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, green beans, cucumbers, broccoli, onions, radishes, spinach and peppers, but its just not enough, so next year, I am expanding!!! hope to grow more herbs, love the lemon sage!
Tomatos for salads aways, but I really like to grow squash and pumpkins. Maybe next year since my house burnt down in May.
