OUR GARDEN

 The top 1/2 of the garden has all been planted first. The bottom half of the garden is for winter gardening or fall plantings..
 This year we doubled the size of the garden, doubling  our amount of work !
 We also used weed cloth in some of the tomatoes beds.
 cuc's up and down the sides broccoli and lettuce in center.
 10 beds total. One side matches the other, 2- 24x4 beds and 3 -12x4 attached beds. Same on other side.
 The squash bed. I also put beans in here to pick until the squash gets bigger than beans.
 Sweet pot. planted on the deck in saved feed bags. these work well for planting. The vines look great hanging over the sides of the deck.
 Cuc's climbing bamboo.
 This bamboo was free and we used it to make trellises for cuc's .
 These tom. are volunteers from last year. So I let them grow with the beans ,onions, and peppers.
 Greening up.
 Artichoke.
 Potatoes in bags.
 Winter squash. Love winter squash. And it holds all winter long.
 

 The trellis in the background ,buy chairs, was made of the free bamboo.
 Then the tomato's were tied to the bent bamboo in above and below pic's.
