My daughter and I are visiting Quebec City, Canada on vacation.  It's been two days so far, sightseeing in the beautiful old town Vieux-Quebec.  But as luck would have it, the next 5 days will be raining with thunderstorms!  Right now there is a “severe thunderstorm” per Weather.com happening and we are comfortably in our Airbnb.  What better time for me to write a garden blog (or three)? Haha!  

Since a storm was approaching, this morning as my daughter was still sleeping, I went searching for an “epicerie avec legumes”.  Please pardon my Google-translated French, it is supposed to mean a food market with fresh vegetables.  Before locating the market, I wandered a little off the beaten track into an urban complex setting. It felt safe as Canadians are generally very nice and helpful.  A welcome surprise was finding an apartment complex frontage that has edible landscaping.  Here are some pics:
