he has two separate areas and an electric fence where the corn, tomatoes, and a few other things are...the rest, i'm not sure

corn was always the hardest one to keep safe...especially the more sweet varieties

these guys made it through the winter, but doesn't look like they will make it through the summer

who would have known, soil pH

they did at one point make a boatload of flowers though

at least there was one good round

poor little guys
