Our June garden Beds

Front Bed # 1
 





 This bed has potatoes along the front.  Peppers through out and the empty squares have just been planted with herbs.  I also have one eggplant in here.










                                                                 Middle Bed #2


This bed has a lot going on.  This one is mostly for tomatoes but we also have broccoli, peas, carrots, beets, and lettuce.  I think all my squares are filled on this bed now.




 



Back Bed #3
 This bed I did the three sisters planting.  There is sweet corn, beans squash and zucchini.  I also have three pumpkin plants on the end.  As well as cucumbers started along the very back of the bed.

The garden is started

I am so happy.  I've finally gotten my peas in.  I'm a couple of weeks late.  Better late than never right.

Building the garden beds and an arbor in the fron yard



 We put in three raised beds in out front yard. They came out great I was about to give up and just put them in the ground and not in a raised bed because it looked like I wasn't going to be able to get any lumber. Then I found someone giving away a lot of old cedar boards. He said most of the stuff was garbage but we happily weeded through them to find some good boards. Then I found someone that was giving away old manure. So for just the cost of gas to pick the stuff up, I got three cedar raised beds with some pretty damn good soil.




Of course I didn't get a finished picture of the arbor.  I still have to paint it white.
