Garden 4 (40'x40') In this plot were 40' white half runner beans, 30' ft row of bush beans, 15 okra plants, 16' fence
row of snow peas, another 20' fence row of more half runner beans, roma tomatoes, butternut and acorn squash and onions.
Gardens 6 & 7 were at the other end of our property and I didn't get any pictures of them. They were planted in corn
and sunflowers.
This is just a small selective picking of our sweet peppers. These got fire roasted on our grill and jarred in olive
oil.
