I will endeavor to upload pictures tonight that I took on Monday. The garden is really filling in now. We planted a bunch more flowers last weekend to provide more color more tasty stuff for pests to go after instead of our food. Actually April planted all the flowers. We have one tomato plant that is looking scrawny, but the rest are really starting to take off and I even have a few blossoms. I'm going to strip the bigger tomato plants this weekend and work in some organic plant food into the soil around the scrawny 'mato and into the ground around the sweet corn.
We've been munching on salads almost every night with our sorrell, buttercrunch lettuce, broccoli and peas. We are almost through the broccoli, so I have to decid what to plant there next. I may try some more beets from seed. Our beets and cabbages that we planted from starts are all looking healthy and strong.
Tonight, it's time to for my weekly session with the hoe. It worked well last week.

I love hoeing, it's so relaxing, especially with a sharp sharp hoe. My collard seedlings and cabbage seedlings were decimated by a ravenous band of chickens last night. Hoping that I'll see some hardy survivors tonight when I get home.
