I really couldn’t be more excited! We have gotten 1 yellow squash! Now this one is not a deep yellow as I like them to be, but it was no longer off the ground.

Yep, hubby was busy and got the raised bed for the watermelon / honeydew made and for the strawberries. We need to cage the strawberry plants or its only going to be a raised table for the bunnies.

In the other we have potatoes, bell peppers, asparagus, three kinds of tomato plants, green beans, basil, and onion.
