Our home garden is planted!

I’m no expert, but I am learning along the way. The kids helped me dig, till, weed, create rows and plant seeds. We ended up starting cherry tomatoes and bell peppers inside. The cats have gotten into them a few times, but I’m hopeful several seedlings will survive.
We planted mostly cold season vegetables, but I did take a risk and put some potatoes and corn in the ground early. Fingers crossed we don’t get a hard frost. If we lose the plants, I’ll try again later.

This is the only broccoli to grow so far. I think it’s broccoli!
Potatoes require hilling every two weeks to keep the new potatoes covered and prevent them from becoming green from too much sun. Thank you internet!
Our indoor peppers are growing well.
This oregano survived two winters and is continuing to produce well. I’ve been drying my own and it tastes great.
