This year we were able to plant our first big garden. Dan built beautiful planter boxes and did all of the sowing. He has a green thumb! It has been so much fun to watch it grow and to eat the food from it. We planted tomatoes, strawberries, watermelon, beans, peas, pumpkins, arugula, spinach, zucchini, carrots, onions, corn, cauliflower, broccoli, and peppers. I thought the zucchini would take everything over, but it has been sad. The pumpkins however are going nuts. The cauliflower, peppers, arugula, and spinach haven't grown well. Everything else has done pretty well. Next year I want to get rid of some things but add basil, more strawberries, and beans.
