"Treat the Earth well. It was not given to you by your parents. It was loaned to you by your children"So after 3 years of saying I'm going to do it- I finally bit the bullet and started a garden. We've got an acre for pete's sake- there's no excuse to not grow my own food.

I have decided to have an all organic garden. No pesticides, no pesticidiy soil, etc. I want to buy some ladybugs to put in the garden, and even some bees wouldn't be too bad.
So here is the garden layout:
2 tomato plants, one lettuce plant, one strawberry plant, one banana pepper plant, cucumbers and potatoes.

Growing your own veggies is fun (except for the damn bugs!). In the past I have grown my own corn, green beans, okra, potatoes, sweet peas, strawberries, carrots, and even wheat. Good luck Farmer Brown.
wow- you are quite the gardener! I will try to control bugs with bugs, but we'll see what happens.
I can't wait to reap what I've sown.
I started a garden too, container, but only 4'x4'. I would have preferred to put mine on the ground the way you did, but not an option. So far things are standing up and not dying so I'm hopeful. If you're interested a post about it: http://bit.ly/ctPqJM
Good luck with yours!
Your garden looks great!!! Very creative planting- when the only two options were the cul-de-sac and the basketball court. Good luck with the harvest!!
Thankyou. You have motivated me to start a garden again. Green beans, okra, corn, carrots, and peppers (4 types). I will be blogging how it goes (and grows) at http://kincannondale.blogspot.com/
Yay, Kin!!! I'll be watching your blog!!!
