Every year, I plant veggies in all 3 boxes.
Here is what is in Box #1:

 Carrots from seeds (usually I do orange carrots, this year I am trying out the colorful mix.
 Kate grew a bean plant at school in science, so we replanted it in our garden:

Dill:
 Oregano:
 My Rosemary plant from last summer is still growing strong
 Cilantro:
 Basil....the smell of basil reminds me of summer!
 Chives:
Box #2:
 I have 4 types of cherry tomatoes in Box #2:
 Sun Gold Cherry Tomatoes:
 Sun Sugar Orange Cherry Tomatoes:
  I also plant squash (only 1 squash plant this year because of the drought)
 Zucchini! My favorite! Again, only 1 plant because of the drought:
 I love growing zucchini because they grow a ton & I have several recipes that use zucchini!

Zucchini Bread

  Zucchini Lasagna

Pasta Primavera with Bacon:

 Santa Fe Zucchini Boats:

  My 3rd Garden Box is reserved for my favorite....Early Girl Tomatoes!

I love early girl tomatoes....they are a medium size & are so red. They are perfect for sandwiches, hamburgers, caprese salad, etc.

 I plant 5 Early Girl Tomatoes in this box:

We also a few fruit trees planted on the perimeter of our garden. 

We have a mandarin orange tree:

 And, 2 apples tree....Fuji & Honey Crisp (you can see them on the left hand side)

The past 4 years I have planted vegetables along the right side of the garden boxes, like cucumbers, pumpkins, cantaloupe & watermelon. It is so fun to grow those, BUT...we are in a MAJOR drought here in California......it's really bad. We are on water restrictions, so I am not planting those veggies since they are vine veggies and require A LOT of water. 

The rest of my vegetables don't take as much water...but I am willing to skip out & cut back on my showers....nothing gets between me & my homegrown tomatoes ;)
