Thinking of next year's garden

This blog has some wonderful ideas that I may incorporate in the my gardens!

I love her raised beds, but I don't want to waste what little space I have been given for gardens. The rest of the land is for the animals. So I get creative using every square inch I have with companion planting. My favorite book is Carrots Love Tomatoes. This is the one I have-
http://www.amazon.com/Carrots-Love-Tomatoes-Companion-Successful/dp/0882660640/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1385048479&sr=8-3&keywords=carrots+love+tomatoes .
But, Amazon has plenty of others like it.
 http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_14?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=carrots%20love%20tomatoes&sprefix=Carrots+Love+T%2Caps%2C295&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Acarrots%20love%20tomatoes

And, if you don't want to buy a book, you can go to this web site for a list of companion plants.

Now, if I could get rid of the front lawn, it would look like this!
