I've got cauliflower, spinach, broccoli, radishes, beets, carrots, and snow peas coming up very nicely. I haven't had any luck with spinach or cauliflower, but they're looking pretty good. So far, spring hasn't had any tremendously wild temperature swings, which is usually what does my spring veggies in around here. :fl I also put in a bed of strawberries, blueberries, blackberries & raspberries in behind the house. I know I won't get a whole lot from it this year, but I think I finally found a good spot to really get some berries in the future! I'll go out & take some photos of what's going on tomorrow. Esp. since it's going to be cool & rainy Sun-Tue. Gotta enjoy the nice weather when it's here! :D

I will ask DH what it is called...it is some kind of molding i think... :idunno
last year we measured and eyeballed it... pain in the neck! this is much easier to keep track of...and as Mel says 'If there is no grid then it is not a square foot garden! " :coolsun
