Tomatoes and corn (maize) are native to North America, and, therefore and pretty easy to grow here. The carrots that we like to grow and eat are NOT native. I have NO sand in my soil, and I've had trouble growing them in my back yard. I'm growing mine in large pots this year, instead. Enjoy your garden!!! :frow

I'm going to try planting some corn under a polytunnel this year. I'll build a few extra 4x4ft beds and start my experiment in one of the 4x4ft beds with the polytunnel on it. Lets see how early I can start them! .. I checked under the poly tunnel today and its really toasty under there! I might put a themometer under it later on and check what the temp is overnight.
