Thanks Bower.

Here's how things looked this morning (shot through a window mesh screen)

After seeing the first couple of boxes, SWMBO asked me to reduce size of the project now, with option to add next year. So I went along and also opted for larger and fewer beds, to decrease effort. I still have large space at the older property.

Here's another shot.

So far I have various lettuces, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, celery, various peas, various herbs... and the first few tomatoes (18x). If it stops raining this afternoon I'll plant a few more things in the little space I have left (at the end of the long row) and get the landscaping guys to come back ASAP and finish filling the last three boxes with compost.

And to stay in Mrs Taboule's good graces, I built her a bonus small bed for flowers and clematis.
