Happening now...

We have a new butterfly bush that is finally flowering this year...and the butterflies are enjoying the purple cone flowers.
Some days there are more than a dozen butterflies on them at once!

Squash...

Getting ready to let loose with the tomatage....

Can you see the visitor just over the top
of the tomato cage?

First of July...

Here is what it looks like here...

The Dirty Rotten Scoundrel!

Here he is....the Ground Hog/Woodchuck
that has been eating everything in sight!
He is just a little thing and he looks much
"blonder" in person. Very strange.

Garden Update

There is a lot going on around our little corner of the Garden State.
The corn is knee high, the beans are producing despite the rotten
Ground Hog, the cucumbers may not produce at all thanks to the same.
The tomatoes are growing and seem to be everywhere. The berries are coming
ripe and the lettuce and chard have been abundant as always.
We never did get a ladder tall enough to reach any cherries, but the birds did enjoy them!

Can you see the cherries ripening?

The big ladder came out so a closer inspection could take place.

Green Beans!!!

We finally have green beans big enough to pick and eat.
Yeah!! We've already been enjoying lettuce,bok choi, swiss chard,
mustard greens,radishes,asparagus, and strawberries,yum!!
Here are some pics from around our little corner of the Garden State.

We planted some plants in front of the compost pile...but we still have a green house filled with plants that need homes...
guess we'll need to go dig another row clear at the community garden plot!

Peonies
