Hi there. I am brand new to this. I am building a raised box to plant my vegetables in, and plan to build a trellis. Now, I have exact things that I am interested in planting (foods my family will eat), and I am trying to figure out if it is safe to plant them together, and also if there is anything I should be aware of or plant with them to help in their success. If I cannot plant all items together, please help me determine if I should have another box to plant the incompatible items. Thank you in advance! I'll take all of the help I can get. I also may be too adventurous for my beginners garden. Please help!

Interests:
Broccoli
Cantaloupe
Carrots
Cucumbers
Squash
Romaine Lettuce
Radishes
Watermelon

Update:
1) I am in North Carolina, Zone 7A
2) The box that I have been looking at the plans for is a 4 foot by 6 foot, but as I size up what vegetables I can plant, I may change that size to fit what I am growing.

Thanks!
