My wife and I do. Can't beat it, really. We typically do tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, squash. The basics. Got some good heirloom tomatoes a couple of years ago, green zebra stripes. Otherwise we stick with the Husky Cherry Red, Mr. Stripey, grape and pear. Good stuff, though!

We never had much luck with melons. I don't think our soil is the right mix yet, and our one sunny patch doesn't get enough sun.

We did try a few plants in whiskey barrels this year with great success. Made the weeding easier, too.
