Photo a Day

Looks like I'm going to have to try photo a week. Have some to catch up. Haven't had a moment to post until today. I was inspired by some of the amaranth growing in the garden today. xo














Phew!

Photo a Day and Garden Update

Here are a few to make up for lost time...









Check out our Flickr page for updated photos of the garden. We are starting to get more tomatoes which is exciting. The peas are there but we are waiting for more of them to grow before picking.  We have melons but they are smallish still and need to ripen. The beans have finished. We cleared out the plants and will probably plant a cover crop there. We harvested the garlic (as you can see above) and the potatoes. In their former bed we have planted cover crops: comfrey, borage, yarrow, bee's friend, fenugreek and sea kale.  Now is the time to start thinking about a second harvest so I think some more greens are going to go in as well as some carrots and maybe a few other things!
