we have tomatoes and peppers I think going in the greenhouse, along with several flower starts. Slowly getting there.
we are skipping some of the crops that take up a lot of space or just aren't worth the effort over what you can get in store (broccoli, potatoes, and a few others).

I started making some wooden planter boxes out of cedar fencing planks. They take a little time to make but only cost about $5 each in materials.

Is anyone into aquaponics?  This is my second system (it's not finished yet) and I'm just now starting some seeds to fill my beds. I also have a ton of tomatoes and peppers started too. I also have a HUGE soil garden. Just planted a whole lotta peas this last week and finally got around to cleaning up my strawberry patch. I love peas. A lot. Mulched all the artichokes that made it as well. I probably shoulda split a couple of them but whatever. I like the plants big.

Wow, that makes my garden look like utter crap.
I have read some articles about aquaponics, but have never tried it.

I had 2.5 yards of Organic top soil delivered today, and after six hours in the yard I got it all spread and the plants in the ground. Tore my Labrum in my shoulder 2 weeks ago, so today this took me a lot longer than anticipated. Vicodin & Sunshine helped though  Carrots Strawberries Blueberries Raspberries Six Different types of Tomatoes Jalapenos, Sante Fe Chiles, & Habaneros Green, Red, Yellow & Purple Bell peppers Beets Pumpkins Green beans Snap peas Basil, Thyme, Cilantro, Rosemary Spinach Here are a few pics of some of the garden:
