Those look like our beds! =)
How does overwintering work? We need tarps?
I guess I also missed how the upside-down tomatoes went for you. Other than how you had yummy tomatoes to eat.
I’d like to try them, I think. Gotta convince Emi.
Also, yay goat! Yay Awestin!

Not sure if weeds & Augustine grass wreak the havoc in your part of the world that they do here, but if I didn’t use a weed mat (or its cheap cousin– black plastic sheeting) to keep the weeds killed off, they’d just push thru my nice composty soil for the veggies.
Well, actually, I don’t think anything kills Augustine, but this does mean less weeding for me next year.
Upside down planters rule!
I had two kinds of Heirloom ‘matoes & I wish I’d gotten them in earlier, but they both are doing pretty well.
& I suspect goatsie won’t be here long (can you say cabrito?), but he was awful cute &seemed pretty tame when we approached hum.
