[And why not. . .?]

On one of the grassy medians in our suburban town in the St. Louis area, someone planted a garden. It already had small trees down the middle, and the avant-gardener had added a peach tree, which was just loaded this year, and under each of the other trees was planted sweet corn, green beans, sweet potatoes, peppers, herbs, and squashes, all well-mulched.
