Here is the garden. I would say it is growing like weeds except for there are no weeds! This is what attracted me to square foot gardening, and so far, I have been very pleased with the lack of weeding that I do. (or don't do) If you see my tall square box on the left of the photo above it is my potatoes. I have never grown potatoes before, and they are so exciting because they are growing so fast and so big. It is like, I cover the plant with dirt one morning and by the next morning, there is a whole new taller plant there to be buried. I can't wait to find potatoes growing in there! Anyway, maybe my favorite thing right now is the swiss chard which is a really high vitamin veggie eaten like lettuce that just keeps producing all year.(its next to the big cabbage below) It is so pretty and so wonderful because I don't have to buy lettuce and it never goes bad in my fridge because it is just waiting out there to be harvested.


You can see I have my tomatoes in, I am excited for them to grow tall up the verticle frames I made and have big juicy tomatoes on them. And Joey's corn is doing really well on the far side by the fence. Those empty squares are waiting for my peppers to go in them and also I am staggering my bean planting so we can have beans all summer long. Anyway, Im so excited about my garden so I share a lot about it, sorry if you are bored by vegetables.
