As you can see, everything is still pretty bare. We hope to show you progress as the season moves along.
This is Regina's herb bed. We were laughing about how her herb bed here is bigger than her entire garden in Haughton. She said there's no way she could fill the whole thing with herbs, so I think flowers will go here too.
This is the raised bed I made for Regina from old cinder blocks we didn't need. It gives the bed more form, and holds the good fertilized soil in. It also prevents weeds from encroaching as badly. We didn't have enough blocks to do the whole garden, but did have enough to outline her herb bed and one other. The fence to the left is not the perimeter fence. It is a fence that runs down the middle of the garden and we use it to grow peas and beans. That's right...this is only half of our garden. In fact, this is only one quarter. Behind me is a whole other section as big as this one. I told you it was big.
These are our pumpkins. Some are pie pumpkins and some jack-o-lantern pumpkins. Regina also planted some more in another area.
This is the biggest pumpkin we have so far. It is a pie pumpkin and will probably be harvested for Thanksgiving or something.

This corn is not in neat rows because this is the stuff that sprouted after I tilled the spring harvest under. The rest of the corn is planted in rows. (The flags are there so I don't hit the plants with my lawnmower or tiller. They have reduced "accidents" dramatically)
