About this Garden Plan

As you can see, my garden it made of raised beds appr. 5x6, 5x8 and 5x6. The round brown circles are trees and there was just enoufgh space to throw in some corn on the end. The sunflowers are a great addition so ensure polination for my veggies and also a good snack, especially in salads and when making bagles or bread. Not to mention they are really pretty to just look at in the yard. All the way on the right is my raised bed Herb Garden. I addedt the extra strwberries that didn't fity in my Topsy Turve planter. (which works great BTW and is sitting on a small table in back of that, because i found it too heavy to hang) The tree circles in front of the herb garden are actually my boyfriends old tires i want to recycle into planters. This will maximize growing space and give me an oppertunity to try and grow something that i never have WithOut risking a giant gap in my beatiful garden throught the summer. This is a first for me, so i will keep you updated. I was thinking if i have 4 tires, i can place a piece of wood in the centerof one and stack it over the other three to make a pyramid with them. We'll see... Hope you enjoy and Happy Harvesting 2013
