In the garden today


 We had a pretty massive bit of rain and some wind come through last night. It started about 2 minutes after I turned on the sprinkler, having given up on waiting...
The tomatoes have already passed the 6' stakes...not sure really what to do at this point.


Chili peppers are coming.



That's a Castor Bean in front of my beets patch. 
It could get really big so I will transplant it in the fall.


New rows of carrots and swiss chard..


The garlic is sending up its flowers






Zuke!


Tomatillos coming back from last night's winds.


 Basil and I hope eggplant coming


Cukes, squash, beans, pole beans, a couple of corn stalks


 There is a pumpkin hiding in there




 Amazing what will grow in part sun...






...surrounded by trees...

June 29..




 Having been away for three weeks, I was excited to see that the garden had done very well in my absence..thanks to Daisey and Luke having looked after it for me. The tomatoes will need taller stakes and the Lettuce radishes and Spinach are getting pulled and reseeded






Squashes are taking off..
