Originally designed to be a wildflower meadow, this oval-shaped bed on the north side of the garden was empty except for some poppies and weeds for the last few years.  The sunny exposure and more informal setting in this part of the garden make it well-suited for growing vegetables and other annual edible plants.  The Vegetable Garden ties the gardens thematically to the fresh produce of the neighboring Farmers Market and will support Davis Farm to School Connection education programs for children and families.

Vegetable Garden - New Plantings
The garden was planted with tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, basil, melons, cucumbers, and squash this spring. This early summer image shows the warm season crops developing.	The garden was planted with broccoli, carrots, radishes, beets, and a wide variety of leafy greens at the end of the summer.  Green tape outlines newly seeded areas.  These cool season crops will keep the garden productive through the fall and winter.
Vegetable Garden Before Renovation
This sunny bed was essentially a blank slate for new plantings
