I'm already eating out of my garden: Four different kinds of kale, three different kinds of lettuces, not to mention spinach and arugula.

Scallions. Garlic.

A full complement of herbs: sage, rosemary, tarragon, parsley, thyme, cilantro, and a small pot of basil in the house.

There's probably more but I can't think of it all.

On edit: also shallots, chives, and the most beautiful, full-size leeks.

I have a full pot of celery I was able to over winter in my greenhouse.
