Yep, aphids. They will adversely affect the growth including deforming blossoms if not checked by something. A few aphids are okay, but they are getting out of control. If you want to be green, spray the undersides of the affected plants with hot pepper or garlic in solution with a little dish soap and lots of water. I'd cook up old cayenne, or hot sauce, or garlic with water and strain, then put in a pump sprayer.
