Two busy bumble bees inside a zucchini blossom.So what do you think they're "buzzing" about?
Fresh harvested bulb fennel and broccoli. The fennel is excellent when roasted or added to a soup.
Rinsing fresh picked cucumbers. CSA share holders will attest that we had a bumper crop this year.
A good dose of compost was added prior to transplanting these tomatoes. We are "pushing the envelope" with our third tomato planting this season. Maybe we'll get lucky. Notice we have drip tape irrigation, but absent the black plastic mulch as it would make the soil too hot. Weeds are apt to be a problem though.
We're a little behind, but the watermelon plants seem to have benefited from the 10" of rain we had a few weeks ago. Now if we can just keep the weeds down.
Sun breaking the tree line on a summer morning. Good-bye shade as it is going to be hot picking squash today, like every day.
Cantaloupe about ready for harvest?
Pink and green tomatoes on their trellis. If could we only get the stink bugs to go away. Why don't the birds eat these guys? I guess they're not too tasty; thus their name!
Ground level view inside one of our trellised tomato rows. We use a walk-behind tiller to keep the weeds at bay.
Bed of spring onions about ready for harvest. I can attest that these are so tasty on a baked potato. Cheese burgers too!
