The other day I created a list of all the stuff I've
currently got growing in the garden (as of August 2014) and I claimed that I'd post some pictures. I took a bunch of photos yesterday afternoon, but photo editing them is taking freaking forever, so I've decided to post them in chunks. Therefore, today's post includes the 8 (eight) 4' x 4' raised beds in the backyard (minus the strawberries, cause there's not much to look at there).
I apologize for the floating row covers. The birds have been eating down my seedlings and I'm also trying to keep the cabbage moths off of some things. You'll have to trust me that there's stuff growing under there. I love you people, but not enough to fiddle around with unpinning and repinning this crap. Also, I tend to plant things in quadrants so it should be easy to follow. There are a couple things in the surrounding borders listed as well.
So, without further ado... starting from East to West in my yard (sunniest to shadiest):
 |
Clockwise from top left: rutabaga, beets, cucumbers, beets |
 |
Clockwise from top left: carrots, kale, parsnips, lettuce, carrots |
 |
Clockwise from top left: cabbage, Italian parsley, pac choi, green onions |
 |
Clockwise from top left: green beans, parsnips, shelling peas, more peas |
 |
Clockwise from top left: onions, leeks, green beans, more beans |
 |
Clockwise from top left: cilantro, radishes, lettuce, green onions (tucked in) |
 |
Clockwise from top left: broccoli, brussels sprouts, more sprouts, more broccoli |
Next time I'll post the experimental garden spot, chicken coop, long raised beds and greenhouse pictures. And, then! I'll do a satellite shot showing where all this is in relation to my yard. Because you just can't get enough garden porn, I always say!
