What's Growing in the Beds?
All of the seeds are from Organic packets except the onion bulbs and flowers. The strawberries aren't organic except the labeled one. The soil isn't labeled organic so I wouldn't consider these organic in the end product. But we are trying to stay away from pesticides and GMOs. Last year I didn't use any kind of chemical on the plants (although they weren't organic seeds) and there weren't any bug problems. This year I planted some marigolds because I've read they are great to keep pests away. We'll see how it goes! I don't expect much from the strawberries this year. I got them pretty late in the season and some were on sale. But since they are perennial I expect a great strawberry harvest next year! I still have to plant the Sunflowers and blackberry bush
