Joanne, I have a really small v. garden 9 X 9. I'm the veggie eater in the home, hubby just not that interested.
My tomatoes I grow in containers along the driveway which leaves room in the veggie garden for peas, beans, and squash, or whatever I fell like growing.
I have started my cukes and some squash seeds in the Wall o' Waters they sure give you a head start don't they.
