Veggie Garden

Our up-stairs neighbor Mindy and I decided to plant a garden this year. We have a HUGE dirt plot behind our rental house and the lawn-care guys said they wouldn't ruin it if we planted. We decided to plant the following:
-tomatoes
-corn
-zucchini
-yellow squash
-onions
-green onions
-watermelon
-cantaloup
-cucumbers
-strawberries
-bell peppers (both green and red)

After planting all that we probably only took up about 1/8 of the land back there!

Here are some pictures of the garden from last week...

A cute row of tomato plants. They now have cages and are about twice as big!

Row of onions. We bought three different kinds. Hopefully they work since we planted them really late.

Our cute little zucchini sprout. It is also a lot bigger now!

The corn coming up. I am so excited for fresh corn on the cob!

The tomato plant has little blossoms now.
The garden. You can kind of see the corn to the far right (there are 6 rows of corn) and the strawberries and peppers hadn't been planted when I took this picture.

 I'll take some more pictures in a few weeks, hopefully I get lots of veggies this summer!!!
