June lettuce bed.

I thought I'd show-off our lettuce bed. This bed has been a terrific producer in the past, however, this year it's phenominal.

The bed is roughly 4' x 8' and is not raised like most of our other beds. The lettuce seems to like the stone around it. The stone wall seems to cool in the heat.

This bed always produces for us, this year it is way ahead in terms of production.

  1. Your garden is beautiful. About how many plants were you able to fit in there?

  2. Hey Sherri,
    Thanks for following. We pack a ton in a very small area. Our "farm" is on less than a 1/2 acre. We currently have 95+ tomatoes of three varities, 75+ peppers of three varities, three beds of pickling cukes, three beds of zucchini, red kuri squash, acorn squash, and a newly planted bed a bush beans. Most of the beds have pole bean tripods loaded with beans. I've also planted soup beans along the inside fence.
