My container garden is running wild!

In the beginning it was void

I'm gonna be flooded with tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, peas and carrots soon!

I had 3 groundhogs take a liking to my container garden. They mowed down my brussel sprouts, collard greens, and $16 worth of lettuce!

I've trapped and removed 2 of them now. Still have 1 to go but it must have gotten the hint as I haven't seen it near my yard again.

I've found chasing them down and kicking them to be far more entertaining. They make noises just like a squeaky toy.

I did a tomato count, and I have 25 tomatoes developing on the plants. :D

Never count your tomatoes dude! You'll jinx the crop!

Here's my garden's progress so far:

Tomatoes, blueberries, parsley and sage.

I'm going to have lots of little cherry tomatoes.

Red potato:

Golden delicious apple (30+ apples on the tree), Eureka lemon, Meyer lemon and seedless lime. You can see the giant rosemary bush in the back against the fence.

My potted tomatoes are just about done. I have another plant in the ground that's got a few green tomatoes on it. I've got an eggplant in a big pot that has blooms on it.

I just planted a boysenberry bush in the ground. I've also got a blackberry bush that I'm debating whether or not to put in the ground or a pot.
