Tim has made me 2 4'x8' raised bed gardens. They are beautiful and totally fit the bill and are the most over-engineered garden beds that have ever been made. I love that man! So, in Bed #1, closest to the backyard, I have planted: sugar snap peas, snow peas, radishes/carrots, okra, popcorn, and broccoli (in that order). These were planted approximately April 10, and I already see a few things sprouting. On April 19, Jeremy and I put in a row of lettuce in Bed #2. We also planted our seed potatoes from Granny's garden in a pot on the back patio. We actually have quite a few more potatoes to plant, and I'm not quite sure where we're going to go with them. So far we have no plan for raccoon or other pest abatement beyond planting marigolds all around the beds. We'll see how that goes!
