My garden is getting there! - Roll-on the summer!

This is Rick, the guy who runs this website - Thought I'd make the first contribution to get the ball rolling.
As you can see, my garden is looking pretty bare at the moment, it is February after all, but everything is now in place and I'm set to achieve a great yield of food crops this year, despite it being a small garden.
My raised beds are now built including the growbag extensions which double up the utilization of the growing area.
I'll be using the raised beds for square foot gardening and have already filled them with my version of mel's mix (see the page on square foot gardening for full info and my video)
I've also now built the vertical climbing trellis which consists of two vertical climbing walls (not in the pictures)
I just hope to God we get a sunny summer this year! The last three summers have been terribly grey and overcast, quite depressing when you think about it.
Looking forward to seeing other peoples contributions :o)
