Yesterday was a lovely, warm, Sunday so we decided to get to work planting a few veggies for the summer. Since we had the trees in the back yard chopped down last year, this allows enough sunlight that tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers are now a possibility. We installed a basic raised planter, as well as used a small window-box type planter for a variety of herbs.
For the herb box we planted mint, lemon balm, and two types of basil, and in the veggie box we planted two types of tomatoes, yellow peppers, red peppers, salad cucumbers and plain cucumbers.
