Here's a photo of one of our raised beds-- we planted six this year. I replaced the center sprinkler today with four corner sprinklers (that you can just barely see in the photo), theoretically cutting our garden water usage by a third.
Here you can see kohlrabi, lettuce, spinach, and peas along the edges. I planted tomatoes in between. A cold spring slowed the growth of the spring crops, so they're going to have to share space with the summer crops for a few weeks.
BTW, the big green leafy plant at the bottom is Indian Mustard, which grows very well here-- no surprise, since the weeds that grow best are all in the mustard family.
