Garden Update


Our garden has exploded with color and produce! Here I offer two sets of photos - the first group of four was taken June 19th, and the rest are from July 5th.




In case you're wondering, the updated list of herbs/veggies includes:

Lettuce (green and red leaf)
Red Beans
Peas
Peppers (red and yellow)
Tomatoes (beefsteak, cherry, and other)
Broccoli
Zucchini squash
Burpless Cucumbers
Melon
Raspberries
Strawberries (very small, but surviving!)
Basil (Thai and other)
Purple Sage
Dill
Mint (two kinds)
Rosemary
Lemon Balm
Curly Parsely
Sunflowers
Creeping Thyme

And a bunch of flowers, as you can see. We've already enjoyed a few salads of home-grown lettuce, and Joey made a delicious basil-lime granita for dinner last night with some of the basil from out front. So exciting!
