Hi! My wonderful sons built a raised garden for me three years ago. The oldest helped me plant and care for it for two summers, and then moved his family to Illinois! I'm ashamed to say all I had this year were some volunteer tomato plants from which I harvested *two* yellow 'cherry' mini tomatoes. It was not a good summer. I want to start over, and do more next year with easy care plants, especially some herbs, and maybe perennials like rhubarb? I also have a strawberry patch originally planted by my grandchildren.
I've got a couple raised beds and just love them. Strawberries are very easy to care for in a raised bed too. Hope you find some good ideas here to get you off to a good start next year.
