Your garden is absolutely beautiful. And, abundance is not a drawback. How many people (and food assistance organizations) would NOT be delighted to have the extra? And how right you are regarding "expectations." Nature does not offer us certainties or guarantees. I am continually amazed that so many people are resistant to this wonderful opportunity - yet heartened by the fact that some people (do) recognize its value. And soon - we shall have no choice but to all be doing this...
2, and the major factor as far as I'm concerned, is the concave bottoms. In an area prone to mosquitoes, the bottoms turn into little pools that hold standing water and turn in to skeeter nurseries. Just some things to consider for those looking to do the same.
Nasturtiums were the most abundant and lasted all season, plus they are edible. The aphids seemed to be more attracted to them then the other plants too.
I love the wine bottles, makes me laugh but it is such a good idea! I took on wine making as a hobby and my husband brought home about a hundred more than I'll ever need so pretty soon they will be edging my veggie patch! perfect. Thanks for sharing your awesome garden. Peace.
This is great that more n more people are gettin used to the idea of food in the front instead of lawn,(time consuming)..its also very therapeutic which is why i love the garden...well done
how awesome does everything look now!!!!

Not sure if you have a food dryer for your abundance. But they are great to dry squash.

1, they will hold more heat, and the extra space used is well worth it. (plug the openings with some beeswax tokeep them from filling with water)

I hope I am not out of place making a sugestion...as far as the wine bottles go: stacking the bottles is better for a couple reasons.........

Clovers are also edible. Make tea out of them.
