the garden

We started the garden the end of April.  It is now the middle of June and most of it seems to be doing very well.  Not sure what happened to the peas.  They started out really well but don't look so well anymore.  Maybe it is too much rain.  Who knows, never grew peas before.


Then there is the broccoli that I was told would attract bugs.  So we planted it in one of the flower gardens.  It too seems to be doing well, although I have no idea when or how those broccoli stalks come out.  It has been about 50 days and all I have are big leaves.  Guess we will see about that!


Then there is the cantaloupe and watermelon and the tomatoes and lettuce.  All of which seem to be growing by leaps and bounds.  Can't wait to make all my own salsa and tomato sauce for the winter.  It is great to go out to the garden and pick your lettuce as you need it.  Awesome!



Awe, then comes the fruit of our labors.  Mmmmm good!


What do you make of this radish?  Interesting!
