I've actually been a member of this forum for a while now but haven't checked it until recently. I love the new look and see some familiar names out there!
I have a backyard garden with 2 raised beds and lots of containers including 7 Earthboxes. I love planting and watching my vegetables grow. Each year, I think last year's challenge under control and then I get served up a new one! It's nice to be here here to share ideas, solutions and stories!

My favorites are tomatoes, peppers and okra but I also grow cucumbers, squash, garlic and lots of herbs. In addition to garlic, I'm going to plant some onions this fall.
My raised beds are 3x30 (tomatoes) and 4x30(everything else!). It's amazing how much I can cram into these beds without overcrowding the plants!

Hello my friend! So good to see you in a place I am new to and coming to really love. Thanks Ellie! Apparently I'm not the only one that spends a lot of time thinking about their garden when we aren't actually in our gardens! Good to see you here too!

Hi, TNTIGER,
Could you describe your earthboxes? I too have raised beds. Any pictures? How did your garden grow this year?
Blessings!
