Howdy. Here in SE Texas. We really didn’t have a winter, so I planted my vegetables in late January. Going around the horn I have: Cantaloupe, strawberries, blackberries, carrots, celery, banana peppers, cherry tomatos, jalapenos, cilantro, green onions and beefsteak tomatos.

I like to cut up a large tomato into slices, put some mozarella cheese on it and bake in the oven. Goes good with beef.

Your garden sounds great! I’m just getting started up here; Zone 4/5 SW corner of Wisconsin. I have Sugar Magnolia peas and Sweet Peas (flowers) in the ground and growing and everything else is on HOLD until Mid-May, hanging out in the greenhouse.

I have my Salad Garden planted (lettuces, spinach, arugula and red onions) and it’s off to a good start, though I saw some digging in there (squirrels, most likely) but no damage to the plants.

Today I am re-potting things in the greenhouse that need it and I plan on weeding garden beds. My big Rose Bed Project will happen in another week or so - all of the bare-root roses have been delivered, so it’s a GO! :)
