Expanding My Small Backyard Veggie Garden + Garden Tour

Gardening in NJ zone 6b.  I built a small enclosed vegetable garden in my backyard last year using Vigoro no-dig fence panels a Vego raised beds. Quickly I felt like I needed more room so I have expanded the garden.   I feel that with the extra space it is looking more like the fairytale cottage vegetable garden with not just veggies but also beautiful flowers.

Winter Sowing an Herb Tea Garden

Starting herbs and flowers using the winter sowing method to start a tea garden.  Many of the hebs and flowers used to make teas work well with winter sowing.  Here are the ones I am growing this year.  You don't need much space and can grow all of these in containers.
