Finally here are a few photos of the Locavore garden!
It is a mish-mash of photos from different times, and we will get more taken once there is more to see. ;)
First, the overall layout of the garden:
We started this from scratch...lifting the sod, and then digging about 1.5 feet down and adding compost. No easy task, even with such a small garden! It is a grid of 20 deep beds, that vary in size, but none more than 4 feet across (for easy access).

This is a view facing West, showing the whole garden, including the containers (there are newly planted peas in the recycle bins, and other veggies and herbs in the containers).
Facing South, there are tomatoes in the first bed, then nasturtiums, dill, carrots, and cilantro in the beds behind.
Again facing South, there are nasturtiums, pole beans, bush beans, carrots, onions, chard, and chives in this row of beds.
Again bush beans, pole beans, nasturtiums, chard, lettuce, carrots, and beets.
This is the last row of beds. Pole beans, beets, nasturtiums, lettuce, and spinach.
And now here are some random shots of the garden:
