We also do a lot of container gardening! DH made me some "self-watering" containers that I found on Mother Earth News. They are working out wonderfully! You only have to water once a week or so! I have some very happy tomato plants right now with more containers in the works. =) Your little farm looks wonderful!
My garden is mostly raised beds bit I also do quite a bit of container gardening. Here you can see my mint in containers. The second pictures shows peppers and gourds.

The mint here is crazy! I don't know why anybody from base housing ever decided it was a good plant to have, but it is taking over everything! Smart idea to do it in containers! I don't use it that much, though I wish I did because it is rampant!
