I have built 4' x 10' x 2' raised beds. They are handicapped accessable. I am growing green beans, mustard greens, tomatos, okra and bell peppers. My herbs are spearmint, basil and rosemary. I have companion planted these with marigolds to keep the bugs away. Rosemary and spearment are also touted to repel insects. Every morning Breezy and I check "the crops", water, pick ripe veggies and fertilize on Sunday. I have chosen to use organic products. This morning I harvested green beans, tomatos and greens for dinner. The okras are beginning to bloom. My mother and I sent off for some heirloom speckled butter beans. What a good feeling it is to pick and eat vegetables that you have grown yourself.
