The Garden

My garden is looking good. I could even say it’s looking great when I think of how far it’s come along. But..

I love my garden and gardening it’s therapeutic and fun. So far I’ve grown and harvested zucchini and yellow squash and then more zucchini and yellow squash.

1st harvest

2nd harvest 

3rd harvest? Who knows, at this point I’ve lost count . hehehe

My tomato plants that I’ve grown from seed are growing like crazy and are pushing out some of my chili plants, but no red tomatoes...yet 🤞The tomato plants my son brought to me that were nearly dead are thriving and growing all over the place but no toms 🍅 ... yet (I’m hopeful, I mean I did bring them back from being nearly dead) My corn is still shorter than me. Sadly my lettuce, radishes, cauliflower, beets, tomatillos, cilantro, onions, watermelon and a few others are all MIA. 

Gardening is fun and rewarding; it’s like raising kids, so when my sprout babies fail it breaks my heart. 

I still have a plan to plant more seeds, I mean I really wanted to pull carrots out of the ground and really want fresh cucumbers, and cilantro and cauliflower and... lol I could go on but will stop now 😄

 I also am going to need to dig up my chili plants and move them since other plants are being area hogs and taking over. 

I am looking forward to posting about my plums that are almost ready to be picked. Soon, Phoebe soon; be patient. I plan on making fruit leather with them. It’s a beautiful purple delight. 😍  I’ve even made some mixed with strawberries 🍓 😋 I’ve found a place that sells local honey and so this will be a win win for me.
