Nice looking garden...been wanting to do something like that in my yard too....nothing better than garden fresh vegetables

We just rented a 30x30 plot over at the Public Garden for the troop to plant a garden. They worked it last weekend and are growing quite an assortment of vegetables, herbs and plants for their gardening Merit Badge. Also made a compost been in the middle...I'll post some pics in a couple of weeks when stuff is growing

They had to design the layout themselves, originally they included a hot tub and a big Screen TV, ahh the mind of a teenage boy......scary place.

Breakdown of what they planted:

Green Beans
Wax Beans
Summer Squash
Zucchini
Cucumbers
Lettuce
Tomatos
Green Peppers
Potatos
Carrots
Garlic
Basil
Oregano
Parsley
assorted flowers (need flowers for Merit Badge)

Doing a Surfcasting campout in a couple of weeks.....I'm hoping they catch a few so we can freeze a few fillets and do a campout in the fall and have a whole meal that they caught/grew themselves.
