The garden is one of the best looking one of the ten in the plot, their are many reasons. Most gardeners use their plot for production, I usually eat out, so not much need for produce. They have all planted and finished harvesting and not started anything for the winter garden. Mine is mostly for the pleasure of it, exercise, bird watching and reading in a garden. During this year I have not removed any vegetable material from it. After it has finished producing the plant is cut in short length and used as ground cover. That material is better left there being than added to a land fill. The top of soil also looks better with a covering of organic material. Next year their should be an abundance of strawberries and Ogalola berries. Paige does not have time to do much there, but I keep both sides looking interesting.
