It don't look like much but this is my new garden ( photo / image / picture from newgrow's Garden )
My brother in law is a farmer of 4 acers in Miss. And he has just moved down to my area in Florida. We are going to be working on my garden to make it much better but this is what I am working with right now. I have both pole and bush beans, broc, Cauliflower, sweet corn,Onions,zuccs, Yellow squash,green peas, and Okra.

The new garden may be small but it certainly has plenty of healthy looking plants in it newgrow. Do keep us updated on its progress won't you?

I think it's a lovely, little garden.  I'm looking forward to seeing it grow and prosper. You'll have some tasty additions to your dinner soon.

You'll be harvesting from your plot while the rest of us are dreaming about Spring gardens! It looks good!

Well thank you all. After this one is over and our so called winter comes I have plans of making it bigger for the spring. My wife is really supporting me so that helps. I will keep posting pics as it gets bigger if I can keep the critters out of it.

May I suggest a 3 foot fence? Chicken wire works for us. It won't keep bugs and worms out, but most of those can be hand picked off.
I look forward to more pics as stuff grows.
Our garden is slowly being taken out before winter sneaks in. Garlic will soon be planted.
