DD> We have a very small garden tract... 2 sections, each about 18 inches
DD> by 20 feet.  Half of one strip holds 4 tomato plants, and the other 
DD> half holds 12 pepper plants.  I have still one large freezer bag of 
DD> tomatoes that have not been boiled down for sauce...this is what 
DD> happens to all the tomatoes that we cannot eat (only 2 of us).  We are
DD> still eating sweet red peppers...I can get a whole winter out of what
DD> we produce.  The green beans are planted in the other strip of garden,
DD> about 25 plants.  All are planted at once and I freeze all that I can.

That sounds like mine.  Basically mine is a strip along the wood fence.  Its 
only 8 inches wide, but it's more like 60 feet long.
Its almost time to get ready for the next year's growth.  (we buy seedlings 
as we dont have the time or skill for much else).  One section is mint.  Next 
section is blank (peas probably), then you get to the green onions.  Last 
years's crop is still comming up so all is well.  No need to replant.  Next 
to that is the tomatoe area (variety normally planted).  Then my flower 
patch...Might put strawberries in this year?
