Took a lot longer than I expected, but I'm finally ready to transplant my seedlings and direct sow the rest into the garden. Looking at planting tomorrow, barring any more unforeseen delays.

A general view of most of the garden.

My 4x4 beds; beans, peas, cukes, squash, peppers, and my melons will be going in these

These are my corn bed, a 2x2 raised section for carrots, radishes and onions. The lower part of that bed will be for tomatoes. The 3x3 is my little girl's bed, not sure what she wants to plant yet.

Soil is a mixture of manure compost, mushroom compost, and bagged garden soil (compost, peat moss, etc.), my local Ace had a sale going on when I got my soil, so I did ok price wise with it. I got most of my seeds from Patriot Supply, along with hitting up the spring black friday sale at Home Depot for some potted starts. I'm going to mulch between the beds soon. Also, the area in front of my 4x4's are going to be where I try my potatoes in straw experiment.
