Garden Update

​This is what we call the "Big Garden". I guess we will have to call it something else next year when "the the "Little Garden" is complete and becomes the new big garden. It is amazing how well it recovered from the hail damage. We are so grateful! I can only imagine how it would have been right now if we hadn't got the quarter size hail. I'm sure those cucumbers (middle left) would be to the top of the trellis but you would never know that the tomatillos were down to stems after the hail. They are to the top of the trellis and as bushy as can be. In the distance you can see the strawberry garden. The strawberries that made it are doing great! They are sending out runners like crazy! I think we are going to recover some of our losses there after all.  The sunflowers are about 10 feet tall now. The cardoon was another thing that came right back like nothing ever happened. The cardoon is on the middle right. It is the spiky, silvery leaves with the pink zinnias poking out from in-between.

One of the low tunnels is filled with Aubervilles cabbage. The other Tunnel is filled with cauliflower. I only got a picture of the cabbage but they are both doing great. The cauliflower is forming beautiful heads. Cauliflower pizza will soon be cooking in our house!

Below you can see Purple Podded pole beans growing along the fence and giving tje cabbage some extra shade.

In the middle is a second round of carrots, spinach, kohlrabi, and Lollo Rossa lettuce. We already harvested one round of carrot and lettuce here, prepared the soil again and replanted it. In the bottom right corner you can see the German Foxtail millet that I planted after harvesting the multiplier onions. It is happy.

Butternut and Tennessee Sweet Potato Squash taking over in the back garden. Persienne carrots in lower right corner. We like to pickle these little round carrots whole.

Last, but not least, basil. So yummy in so many things.

This is not all the gardens and everything in them. Just a quick update. So much I couldn't fit it all in at once!

I hope you enjoyed your mini garden tour.

Eat local, eat organic, and know where your food comes from,
