Blogs with pictures are so much cooler than random writings. Unfortunately - it's late and I can not find the cord that connects my camera to my computer, so we'll just have to do without tonight.
It's been a busy couple of weeks! The garden has done a ton of growing, there's been some recent visits to some pick your own berry/cherry farms, some veggie deliveries from my sweetie that needed eating and preserving, weeding, and jam making! All very exciting, time consuming, amazing things.
I am now harvesting peas from the garden across the street - oh and carrots and zucchini as well! I feel like my personal plot there is in full production mode. I can head over nearly any evening of the week and pick at least a couple of things to have for dinner - kale, collards, lettuce, onions, herbs......
and basically the same here at the house - tat soi, arugula, scallions, basil, cilantro, beets, radish and SNAP BEANS!!!
Tonight I spent an hour or so mowing the community garden in preparation for the tent raising tomorrow - I am totally stoked to get that done, as it will provide some nice shade for picnic Sunday's or just taking a small break during hot summer days at work. I also mulched the food bank plot with bark mulch that the community garden purchased for all the plots. It looks great and I am hoping it helps to maintain the edges and keep the grass from taking it over.
Other than that - there is not much to report...
wish I had my pictures!
