What I'm growing at home - the annual veggies

Since I manage such a big vegetable garden - the Salvation Army charity garden  (in addition to my full time office job), what I grow at home in my own partially shaded yard is pretty limited. I have 4 tomato plants (2 Early Goliath, 1 Early Girl, 1 Better Boy) given to me by friends, and 4 pepper plants, 1 Orange Blaze, the rest unlabeled (also given to me by friends). 3 of the tomatoes are in pots with 1 in the flower bed. I have a little rectangular planter in which I planted two of the pepper plants and filled in around them with Little Finger carrot seeds. I figured those would not take up much room but would make use of every inch of the planter. The remaining two pepper plants are in the flower bed keeping the tomato company.


I have a wooden tub planter with yellow and red Swiss Chard and a fabric bag planter with Outredgeous lettuce interplanted with Purple Plum radishes.
