I only have a small garden this year. I had planned to be on the road, but that did not work out, so I had to scramble to put this together at the last minute. I have tomatoes, basil, cayenne peppers, bell peppers, okra, green beans, cucumbers, corn, and Zuchinni.
My garden has never been plowed or tilled. I use the lasagna gardening method, which is basically just layering mulch. A small part of my garden was made by laying out bags of garden soil, making slits in one side of the plastic bag, flipping it over and cutting the side away to expose the dirt, then planting directly in the bag and covering with straw. This garden bed was started last, so it is fairly new. It will become richer as seasons pass and more mulch rots into the ground creating wonderful black dirt.
Below are pictures of my veggies as they have been growing.
The smaller bed to the left, framed by wood, is the one made from bags of garden soil. I have 2 tomato plants in there, a basil, and 2 okra plants. The tomato cages are homemade.
