back to the garden

well, it's that time of year again when i spend a lot of time in the garden. some days i go out several times just to look at it! i love it so much! we have bigger plans for next month but for now, it's starting to feed us little by little and that is an amazing thing. ALL of my tomato plants this year are volunteers!! AND all but one of my watermelons as well!! here are some pix, of course everything is about twice as big since these were taken:

lettuce and spinach patch

strawberries

cucumbers

Wow...Those Strawberries are beautiful. I've had TWO and a squirrel ate half of one.

YUM!!! We have weeds and my garlic got lost in the shuffle of our getting the ground ready for seeding! But, I bought a book on edible plants and ya know most of those "weeds" are actually edible or at least make a nice tea! We are blessed with abundance.
