I've been growing in cloth bags (dry out too soon) and raised beds for the past 5 years and I'm looking for some feedback from team in-ground. I really want to grow some strawberries and maybe even test a tomato or some other veggies in some spots. I've got some garlic I need to start and I've been told they really don't need much fancy stuff. Pro, cons, any info is helpful. Wondering about soil temps and other challenges you may run into.

I'm looking to fill the 6 slots of got in this year's garden. As of now, I've got Sun Gold (always a strong performer), and looking at Isis Candy and Indigo Cherry Drops. I did Berkley Tie Dye last year, but it was a low yielder so I'm not growing it again. New Girl performed well, and had a late but steady delivery, so I'll add it back.

Any recommendations for proven non-cherry varieties? I'm in Longmont, 6-7 hours of direct sun with afternoon shade. Raised irrigated beds.

I’m in town for a few more days and was looking for a spot that has some more genuine options for shopping. I usually like to grab a hat or some T-shirts that aren’t touristy - they are for my daily wear. Any recommendations are appreciated!
