A man, a plan, a canal

This is the first stage of our garden plan for this year.  We are going to put in a combination of plants and seeds in the hope we can extend the harvest, especially in the summer squash and zucchini.  Ironically, these are the two vegetables that are like gold at the start of the season, but after a couple weeks, nobody wants anything.  Last year we ate zucchini boats, patties, bread baked and fried, but I digress. This is the layout.

Plants- in no particular order

• Zucchini
• Yellow squash
• Cherry tomatoes
• Roma tomatoes
• Beefsteak tomatoes
• Jalapeño peppers
• Poblano peppers
• Anaheim peppers
• Some other pepper
• Sweet peppers
• Tomatillos

Seeds-in order of maturity

• Summer squash
• Cucumber
• Green beans
• Zucchini
• Snowbird peas
• Green beans
• Sugar snap peas
• Carrots
• Watermelons

We also have a couple types of onions, red, yellow, purple what have you.  I like strong red onions.  I think we may be able to do a second crop later in the year.

It's raining this morning, looks like a good soaker.  If it clears up this afternoon, we may go try to get started with the planting.  It's been pretty warm and dry for the past week or so, warm for this time of year.  Not much worry about frost but oh how quickly that can all change!
