I feel like my bed is overcrowded and it’s bigger than yours and has less stuff.
You might need to reduce what you put in.

I thought this was a joke when I saw it.

In a 4×2 bed, you could do about eight different vegetables and depending on their space needs more than one plant per square foot. You can look into square foot gardening for more info, but kale for sure needs a lot of space, and tomatoes, and a few of your other plants.

Agree with others it’s broken up into too small of chunks. Maybe look into chaos gardening though? I’ve seen people mix seeds like your selections (minus the vines, those may take more intentional planning) and spread evenly across a whole bed. More plants, but more room for error. Theoretically things should thin themselves out and take hold where they’re content.

Also, that’s a raised bed. Container gardening is for individual containers. Just FYI, I’d look into square foot gardening.
