What did YOU plant this year?

We have multiple gardens - in one I have 67 heirloom tomato plants, sunflowers, brussel sprouts and pickling cukes. Another I have giant dahlias and more sunflowers. These are all sale items for my stand. The other garden is for us: turnips, beets, pole beans, bush beans, spinach, lettuce, peas, HOT peppers, more tomatoes, kohlrabi, parsley, dill, rosemary, basil, zucchini, and some squash that is huge and I can't remember the name

I just planted a small garden earlier this year, since we'll be moving shortly... I've got a real nice list for the massive garden I'm planting at the new house though.

Currently, I've got:
Radishes
Leaf Lettuces
Carrots
Peas
Green Peppers
Broccoli
Sweet Corn
Sunflowers
Zuchinni
Cucumbers
Watermelons

The list for the new house: (list is for multiple varieties of each)
Broccoli
Cabbage
Carrots
Corn
Beans
cantaloupe
cauliflower
cucumbers
Lettuce & greens
Eggplant
Peas
Peppers
Pumpkins
Garlic
Mustard
Onions
Radishes
Potatoes
Strawberries
Spinach
Tomatoes
Squash & Zuchinni
Watermelons
herbs: chamomile, chives, dill, horseradish, mint, parsley, sage, basil, lavender, marjoram, cilantro, oregano, rosemary and thyme.
Fruit trees: there's an existing walnut there, adding apple, cherry, peach, pear, plum and hopefully lemon.
Fruit bushes: blueberry, raspberry, blackberry
And I'll try to grow a grape vine as well...


Hopefully, I'll still have time to get it all into the ground and growing. I'll make some makeshift greenhouse covers for when it starts to get chilly. I want to keep it all growing as long as I can.
 
Just got ours in this weekend - good thing we waited as we had freezing weather just over a week ago! Keeping it pretty simple this year -

tomatoes (7 varieties)
bell peppers
zuchini
crookneck squash
hubbard squash
pumpkins (big & little)
artichokes
bush beans
lettuce
spinach (got the New Zealand - we'll see if it truly tolerates heat)
chard
radishes
carrots
parsley
basil (Lots of basil!)
chives
tarragon
marjoram
various flowers

I'm working on expanding it to include more artichokes, asparagus, strawberries and berries (not sure what kind yet - we do a family garden - us, my mom and my brother's family - so we're negotiating on what types of berries). We also will be removing the few fruit trees that are currently there and replacing them with some others. Oh, and there are about 30 rose bushes in the garden, too. I think that's it

No body laugh! Please! We're just getting this place in order!

four tomato plants
3 squash
spinach - all in containers

9 Darrow blackberry plants
4 mulberry trees
3 apple trees
3 cherry bush trees
1 english walnut
1 pinoak
1 crab apple
1 silver maple
2 sugar maples and I just ordered 2 more
1 peony that is lookin pretty dead
- we have wild blackberries but you have to wade through tick country to get to them. The Darrow berries were listed as thornless .... but they have thorns. Not big ones but enough to get your attention.

Next year .... a real garden! Just gotta get a water line trenched up to the garden spot!
