A little Garden Update Oct 2018

I kept watermelon & bell pepper plants alive through the brutal hot summer (& my trusty basil plant) and now it's time to enjoy happily growing plants. Keeping it simple this season with a bed of rainbow & orange carrots, pole green beans, lettuce, kale & peas (haven't sprouted yet). Volunteer marigolds from past seasons are popping up to help with pest control.
