Garden Update

Our garden is growing!

Ok, the GARDEN is staying the same size.

But the PLANTS are growing!

That first row are beans.

Lots and lots and lots of beans.

And 6-8 cherry tomato plants to the far left.

There are also more pole beans all along

that fence but they are growing a little slower.

Kyle also has 4 lavender, a rosemary, 

a garden sage and a little chamomile that 

keeps getting stepped on.

(It's in a bad spot...)

Then there is a dud row of peas.

We are going to over plant it with onions.

Or something.

It's too late in the season to plant more peas.

(Yes, April is TOO LATE... crazy, eh?)

The next row is zucchini and yellow squash.

We will have enough to feed the world.

But we LIKE eating zucchini and yellow squash.

I usually buy 4-6 each week (and Kyle buys

another 3 or 4) so I don't think we will have

much trouble using them up.

And we'll freeze the rest.

And then we have the row of bell peppers, okra,

and a few carrots.

I inherited Dad's carrot "bad juju".

And passed it down to Kyle.

We don't seem to be getting much growth there.

And we have planted them TWICE.

Whatever.

Meanwhile...

I spent some time last night in Buddy's stall

with my fancy shedding gloves.

There's half a horse there!

This morning I put Andy out in the sunshine

in the back pasture and spent about 20 minutes

on him. His hair is FINALLY releasing!

Just walked by the barn after checking on

the garden. The pasture has a good number

of various birds gathering horse hair to 

line their spring nests.

I love how Mother Nature works!
