  Thank you all for the kind words with regard to our garden. Its honey suckle that we have growing over our arbor. Its planted in two pots in both sides of the arbor. Our goal is to have it meet in the middle.

  Congrats on being the Farmer of the Day. What kind of vine is that growing up the trellis over your gate?

  I really like the way you have given your garden an entrance. It makes it look very special.

  We are in our second year of growing our own food. Our first attempt with the raised bed worked well, but it was only six inches tall. This year I expanded the bed. Its 9 L X 4 W X 17 inches in depth. This years bed has been much more productive than the one we had last year.

  It looks like you have incredibly productive container and raised bed gardens! How long have you been growing your own food?
