This is our new garden. Our friend Scott tilled it up for us early in the spring. It has been a challenge to keep the weeds at bay; since it is in a place that was formerly field, persistent plants are constantly trying set up housekeeping here. We laid in a LOT of mulch, and after a bit of a rocky start the plants are really doing well now.
Chris was determined to grow some peppers this year. We have not had any luck at all with them in the past. He was delighted to harvest this bad boy yesterday. We cooked it up and it tasted better than any we could have bought!
And tonight there were FOUR summer squash ready to pick.
I planted a row of Cosmo's in the garden to attract bees. And to make me smile. They are working on both counts!
Chris and I walk out each night to see the progress of the plants. It is a delicious pleasure!
