Our vegetable garden

I really wanted to do a good sized vegetable garden this year, but unfortunately time was not in our favor between the move and all the raining weather. So, I decided to do a little bit of container gardening and next year we'll try to put in a decent vegetable garden.

We've done tomatoes before and have had pretty good luck with them. So far so good this year as well. We have 4 big boy plants and 1 Roma plant.



Something new this year is lettuce. I bought 4 romaine and 4 bibb lettuce plants and have them in a window box size pot on our deck. Originally they were by all the tomatoes, but we have some brave bunny rabbits who decided that our baby lettuce plants looked like a great snack...grr!


We also have some rosemary, basil and oregano growing. We love the fresh summer produce from the Fishes Farmer's Market, but it's even better when it comes from your own backyard!
