My Garden in Early April 2006
My 2006 Garden
Okay - I've got much work to do outside of the fenced Square Foot area - I've done some weeding and cleaning since this picture was taken, and I'll put up a fresh picture when I get a little more work done. I very much look forward to the day when ALL my gardening is done in Square Foot beds!

Here are some pictures of my garden starting in April, 2006 showing the area inside the fence. I now have four beds, three 4'x4' and one 10'x18" and one large portable pot of spearmint in this area. Click on the pictures below for full sized versions. The items planted in each bed are explained below the photos.
