Actually this is all in a fairly small garden. Its amazing if you plan it right and spend a just few minutes everyday how much you can reap from a small area. Also once things start growing make sure you pick what is ready every day or two. The plants will produce much more this way.

Tomatoes I started indoors and and beans went in a couple weeks ago. I also tried beets this year which are going ganbusters all of a sudden, and onions from seed. I left room because I'll get some hot peppers (the last garden ingredient for salsa) and I want to start asparagus, just haven't found any anywhere. I also have horseradish, rosemary, oregano, chives and strawberries.
Not much to prep, I just turn it over, throwing in a few shovel fulls of peat. I also add the ash from my chiminea and anytime I find a dead potted plant in a healthy dirt/vermiculite misxure, I throw that in. I don't use any spray or pesticides, but I'll pay the neighborhood kids for toads and top dollar for a praying mantis.

I can make some nice mud pies if any one is interested
