My Garden:)

Tada! Here is my little garden this year! This year I am growing tomatoes, carrots, corn, watermelon, zucchini, squash, peas, strawberries, peppers, tomatillos, and broccoli! In august I will plant some spinach and lettuce as well. I really try to pack as much as I can in.

These are some of the "wild" tomaoes that are growing. Last year I never got around to cleaning out the garden before it started to snow. So this sping I just tilled in some of the dead plants and tomatoes as compost. I didn't think anything would grow but the seeds have done what they were meant to do. I am interested just what kind of tomatoes I will be getting from them.
Peas are ready to be picked!

I am very excited about my three rows of corn.

These are the onions from last year. I guess I could have left them in the ground but I was tired of looking at them. I would prefer to grow onions that grow better green onions and I would like red onions.

I'm so jealous!

Looks great! and I love that you pack so much in--I'm usually the same way. The late start this year is the only thing that kept me from doing that this year, too.

I had wild tomatoes grow last year, and they actually produced better than some of the ones I purposely planted! They tasted fine to me, too, and had fewer bug issues. Weird, I know.

I'm impressed. Maybe next year you can show me a thing or two about gardening.
