He & his little brother grab the baskets & the scissors, climb the fence & head out.
The 4 year old is in charge of fresh flowers from the cutting garden.
They both hunt for ripe tomatoes & bell peppers.
The broccoli & kale finally gave in to the heat.
The onions are all picked & just a few carrots & beets are left.
We get cucumbers, tomatoes & peppers every morning.
We planted another 4 rows of sweet corn & the popcorn is almost ready.
The pumpkins are continuing to grow, GROW GROW.
The grapes are ripe now & sweet & juicy.
I have put up corn & salsa so far. Almost ready to do the first batch of tomato sauce.
Happy sigh.
Lots of empty rows that need to be replanted. We reseeded some with marigolds to keep the bugs away.
Peppers.
Mini pumpkins, bird house gourds, cucumbers & morning glories on the vine house.
Cutting flowers.
See the hummingbird? :)
Sunflowers.
Morning glories. My favorite flower. I have planted these every year since I was a very little girl.
Yummy grapes.
The kids each carved their names in some of the pumpkins. As they grow the words grow with them.
The pumpkin & corn jungle.
Yesterdays pickings.
Remember the shady spot to rest & relax? Well...the pumpkins *may* have sort of , just a little bit...taken over...
Blessings.
