Hope sprouts eternal

The summer veggie garden was, frankly, a disappointment. It was the biggest garden I had every cultivated and I amended the soil, planted at the right time, watered and weeded regularly. A few things flourished-- tomatoes and a mystery squash that turned out to be a pumpkin, but everything else was stunted or simply died in the ground.

I did learn alot and now I'm starting the winter garden with high hopes. It is in a different plot (luckily I have a big yard) and I planted a bunch of seeds in flats. There'll be arugula, beets, bok choy, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, chard, kale and lettuce. I'm hoping this will yield a better crop.
