How our garden is growing

The plants were installed in the raised beds at the beginning of May.



Then it rained and rained and rained some more. And this is what we had a little less than 2 weeks ago (this is a slightly better view than the camera phone shot of last week). The squash are drowning out the poor carrots and radishes underneath.



And now I need to take more photos because I swear the plants are all twice as big again now. Wait 'til you see the tomatoes.

We'll have a great harvest if we can keep the grumble grumble deer away from the plants. They've already nibbled at the tomatoes twice.

The early summer garden

In the rear bed is our giant squash plant with one growing already. We also have carrots, cucumbers, beans, onions and radishes.

 
 

First tomatoes

 
 

Happy first day of summer
