Weeding and feeding
It rained last night, and its nice and cool/gloomy today so we got some work done. Weeded a lot, and I put some vegetable food on the tomatoes and peppers.

Got more tomatoes, pulled most of the onions, more beans of course. ? one tiny okra
Took a break
It was a mistake. This was the haul yesterday.
Abundance! 2 days since picking. First Roma tomatoes . Bt
I turned some runner beans into a puree (boil in salt water 4-5 minutes, blend with butter and garlic powder.) it was delicious.
Today’s haul is getting turned into mock Apple crumble.
Artichokes are full of bees
Good hauls
Garlic, rhubarb, and heat.
It’s been a nice cool summer somehow, and we’ve all been happy about it… But today that changes!
I pulled all the garlic to cure. There’s a bunch. The metechi in the south bed seemed a little stunted. I think in general the Deerfield purple gave larger heads.
We also stripped down all the rhubarb, and picked raspberries at a friend’s- for brewing experiments.
Things look good. Good eating. Yellow beans are yellowing, green beans are getting ready to bear, and scarlet runners have given a few. I’ve been pulling squashes while they are small. I’ve got a couple of beds languishing now- I wonder if there is anything I can plant…
I’m pretty sure I’m allergic to turnips as well as radishes. *sigh*
Gone for a couple of days…
And things happened!
Garlic is starting to look sad, so I pulled about half.
Food! First cherry tomatoes, yellow beans, runner beans. Raspberries!
Yep!
Last 2 days.
Weeding and some harvest
these photos are from a few days. We’ve eaten a bunch of kale, a few squash and artichoke, some peas. We will need to split daisies and probably the cat mint this year. It’s out of control. I put flash tape out to discourage the robins from stealing all the berries. ? hopefully it helps. Tomatoes are green, beans are flowering, peppers are starting… Okra is failing. It’s been kinda rainy and cool, which I’m actually kind of thankful for. Onions and garlic will probably need harvesting in the next couple of weeks.ys.
Kneeed to get back out there
I’ve been a little unsteady with a flare up, but I taped up today to do a little light check on the garden.
Scapes! Squash
Peppers are flowering
I found a pea (ate it)
Runners are running
tomatoes in west e (the ones planted later)
Another tomato and pepper
We worked outside a bit today.
P planted the mystery tomato (nova?) next to the spa pad as an experiment. (will it thrive because of the held heat?)
I bought a jalapeno pepper that I hope we can use in salsa.
Yellow squash spotted!
okra flower!
I also trimmed back the blackberry and cat mint, fed the tomatoes, watered the grass and clover seeds and weeded.
