I am thinking about growing some vegetables this summer in container gardens-I live in a townhouse. What sort of vegetables are good for this? I love celery, radishes, carrots, tomatoes, etc. but picking seeds is a new thing to me. Any recommendations?

I don't have any luck with seeds. But if you want to try, plant seeds, according to packet directions, in small pots; keep inside in sunny location. Transplant to large container when at least 6 inches high. Or just go to a nursery for seedlings. Try cherry tomatoes - I've had success with "sweet one-hundreds"; plant a couple tomatoes along with a marigold or two as a sort of organic pesticide to dissuade aphids. Don't forget a support for the tomatoes - put a tomato cage around the young plants. If you like eggplant, try Japanese eggplant. Both plants are easy growers; keep in large, separate pots. Both are sun lovers. Other sun lovers are herbs. I have oregano and thyme growing in a nice strawberry container. Just make sure with all potted vegetables that you have proper drainage or you'll have root rot. Have fun!

yeah most any veggies will grow in a pot. "sweet one-hundreds" are great i have one thats almost two years old in my school green house that started under my rabbit cage of all places(ive never given them tomatos either). but with that tomato plant does and will need prunning and good drainage. but yeah onions, carrots, peas, beans, eggplants, etc are all good for pots. but you do need to watch for the root rot and various pests.
I'm a highschool student, FFA member and officer, i have horticulture twice a day, and manage my school green house and i love it. I'm most likely going to college also for hort.
