a look at our tiny garden

I tried something new this year, my garden is planted in straw bales. It is actually doing better than I expected and we have enjoyed several cucumbers, green peppers, yellow squash, several cherry tomatoes, and 1 zucchini so far. I can see the bigger tomatoes hanging on the vines, so I am patiently waiting for them to ripen. I also can see a few spaghetti squash growing. Above is a couple photos of our garden. I am hoping to make this garden bigger and better next year!! I also have 2 patches of mint/spearmint planted that has done really well this spring. I dehydrated several mint leaves to enjoy this winter in tea.
I have visited farmers market several times already this year enjoying all kinds of wonderful produce but I hope to grow more of it myself next year. I also have had a couple wonderful friends give me zucchini and yellow squash so I have been able to put a few bags of it in the freezer to enjoy this winter.
