Planted 5 - 26" round pots of English peas. I found the pots on sale at Home Depot for $10 a piece, regular price was $30. I used my little tomato cages (the ones that aren't big enough for a tomato) upside down as a trellis. I only had 4 cages so the last one is stuck some bamboo poles in and tied string all the way up.

I also planted a 4x8 bed of turnip and mustard for greens.

Inside I started from seed

12 Terrific tomato
2 mortgage lifter tomato
2 yellow pear tomato
2 Fordhook Zucchini
1 Tautume Zucchini
1 Rond de nice Zucchini
2 Spineless Zucchini
2 Black Beauty Egg Plants
2 Sparkler Egg Plants
4 Jalapenos
2 Cayenne Pepper
2 Ancho Pepper
2 Peter Pepper

Only the Zucchinis and Tomatoes have sprouted.

I plan on going over to my friends house this weekend and planting more and helping her start her plants. She had a raised bed garden last year and bought tons of plants, but it didn't do well. She lives in a shady area and is going to move her beds this year and we hope it will do better with more sun. :D

It was great but now it's supposed to shower all week. It's gray and drizzling right now. I'm hoping the weekend will be dry and sunny. I was planning on painting my coop. It's been almost 2 years since it was painted and now I want to change the color! My kids and husband think I'm crazy.:lol:
