We have a juvenile robin hanging out on our back porch.

So it' been a while since I last posted we have been busy. But the garden is doing great I'll post a picture later if I can get the energy to get up. I was stupid last night and was pounding my drinks at the bar and I'm really feeling it.

For some strange reason I don't really like to plant in straight lines. I know I could plant more if I put nice rows in but I don't want to.
So in my main garden I have two hills of corn in the back the one on the left has beans around the base. And the one on the right has peas at the base I was going to put cucumbers in but I never got around to it. Next I have 3 broccoli plants on this garden one in the back right corner and the other 2 on the front. Then right in the middle is our Roma tomatoe it's loaded with tomatoes but none of them have turned yet (I'm waiting impatiently ).then we have 8 pepper plants varying from different bells to jalapeños. I also have a basil and 2 marigolds.

In pallet garden 1 we have 3 peppers I think they are jalapeño my little man helped me plant and he kinda planted them before I knew it.i also have I believe a couple bell peppers and a basil as well as flowers. We also planted a broccoli although I won't plant it in there again as it doesn't look as helthy.

in pallet 2 I have lettuce on top then we have I believe a jalapeno, basil, thyme cilantro(I think I'm going to plant 4 or 5 next year ), a bell pepper, and a bunch of flowers

Not planting in straight lines is a sure sign of creativity! Somehow, I'm guessing you have very happy plants this way.

I really like how the vertical pallet looks.

That looks delicious! I haven't had success yet with broccoli. Maybe I'll try again next year... And try to find a variety that doesn't mind warm weather.
