Garden Images - 7/22/11

It has been a cool spring/ beginning of summer. It has only been in the 80s a few times so far.

Arugula bolting. This is a bit much to eat all of it. I will try and trim this back to see if I can continue to get leaf production and may thin a few of the plants. It is sooo good in salads.



This is one of the garfted tomatoes. This is two heirloom varieties. I'm growing them up the twine pruning all of the sports that form in the crooks of the leaves.



Luke's three sisters garden. Corn, squash, and beans.



Patch of bush beans coming along.



Marion berries are ready, yumm! I love these berries, they are so big and sweet. We have a had a nice harvest this year, so far 4 pints. To prune I take back all of the old vine coming off of the main vine in the fall/early spring.

Harvesting Cabbage

This is the first cabbage that we harvested from the garden. It was harvested a little less then two months from planting as a seedling. It made a very nice slaw that we served at a BBQ with peach glazed salmon.
