[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a tough area for bell peppers. Try sweet Italian peppers instead. "Jimmy Nardello" does well for me.[/quote]

Good tip, thanks.  We have had phenomenal luck with jalapenos (to the point where we only have 1 plant ever other year) but zero luck with bell peppers.
We have a very small raised bed so I plan 3-season growing with lettuce, radishes etc early, then tomatoes, and so forth.

Keep some space between your snow peas and regular peas, and mark them, otherwise you forget which is which  :D which maybe only matters if your DD doesn't eat all the peas standing in the garden anyway.  I don't think a single pea made it into the house.

Any other suggestions for kid-eats-them-in-the-garden veggies besides cherry tomatoes, would be great...

Thyme and oregano have done great and I just let them run wild.  At the end of the season I pull up by the roots, clean, and hang upside down under the stairs (cool and dry).  Pull off the stems and voila, fabulous dried herbs all winter.

I am thinking of sneaking some pretty looking lettuces in the front yard, but DH will complain that it looks trashy.
