how does your garden grow?

warning: picture overload of garden delights.  we (let's face it, really jb) have worked super hard the last several weeks getting the yard and garden ready for planting our spring treats.  though we're not totally done, it's well on its way.  have i mentioned how excited i am to be done with school so i can play in the yard all the time?  super excited.  anyway...i don't have pictures of everything, but below are just some of the things growing in the yard right now.

what edible items we're growing (so far):
cucumbers
tomatoes (lots of types)
tomatillo
peppers (lots of types)
watermelon
squash
pole beans
bush beans
eggplant
about a million types of herbs, including a jb vs. me contest on who's herb pot is the cutest

still leftover from winter garden:
swiss chard
lettuce
onions
green garlic

(last of the broccoli)

(lettuce/chard)

(mustard greens)

(head of lettuce bigger than jb's head)

(the new beds - better growth shots coming soon)

(jb's chicken coop masterpiece - i don't think i'd ever posted a pic of this)

(rain barrels and gutters make watering fun)

(happy pansies - we have LOTS of flowers right now and i love all the color)
