...but I just this week am finally getting my plot in my local (north
Oakland) community garden, and I'm all a-twitter. I'm going to be
square-foot gardening, and besides tomatoes, which are the *point* of
gardening as far as I'm concerned, what's a good thing to plant this
next couple of weeks?

I know. So much rain this year I got a late start also.  I just couldn't clear all the
weeds out in the mud.  Bah.

I'm pretty novice at this, but what about carrots, lettuce, radishes and spinach?
Carrots, lettuce and spinach you can eat any time.  Radishes grow fast.

I ended up planting a lot of tomatoes, but also carrots, beets,
lettuce, and some other stuff.  Not radishes, though, because while
they're easy and fast to grow, we really don't like them enough to
justify any gardening effort on them.
