The southeast side of the house is designated for a vegetable garden because we get way too much shade from the forested side. I really enjoy the raised beds; we have fairly clay-like soil and drainage is always a problem. The grape vines on the arbor are used for making wine, as are the blackberries and rhubarb.

By the way, the path around the gardens pictured above are about 12" of rock - that seemed to solve the drainage problem because it is really low in the backyard.
