This first picture was taken May 24, 2011. In the far left bed, next to the deck, we have several varieties of tomatoes, and also strawberries. The middle bed has different types of peppers, all hot! The bed on the right has brussels sprouts, nasturtiums, radishes, beets and purple carrots. The bed in the front has zucchini and yellow squash, peppers, stevia, and savory. We also have a couple blueberry bushes and two kiwi plants.


These pictures were taken on June 9, 2011. We've now mulched the beds with newspaper and pine straw, so some of the smaller plants are barely peeking up. Everything is growing well. The lumber stacked on the side is for an arbor for our kiwi plants. They are fast outgrowing the small trellis we have them on!


The yield thus far: 2 radishes, and 4 cherry tomatoes. Weldon also picked a cowhorn pepper (a type of cayenne) for lunch today, but I didn't get a picture. 

Lilies from the back yard.

Total pounds of produce so far:  2 1/2 oz.
Not much, but I'm going to keep track all summer, if possible, and see how much we get!
