Garden pics

 Elijah is pulling weeds.

So these are our most recent pics from the garden. The boys seem to get more and more excited as the fruits of our labour bloom.

Our peppers are showing signs of life.

The peas have done extremely well. They are taller than Elijah and he is quite taken by that. McKenzie just comes to garden to climb the apple trees that are in the orchard. The weather has been nice and the earth is dry. Thank God for water.

Lettuce and carrots

 We have planted seeds straight from their pouches to see how well they do. Carrots and lettuce are sprouting. I look at the other gardens and they have carrots that are almost done. Oh well its our first year. I often wonder if next year I should get two plots.

Corn and spuds

Peppers

Corn should be here soon!

If there is nothing more rewarding, its finding that the corn is growing. We purchased a hybrid type of corn that should harvest in 54-60 days. I pray that we have enough sun to harvest some. I am just hoping for one nice ear. I have thought about what to plant next year and when to start. The downfall.... the Pacific Northwest has a summer of July to August. So I should plan accordingly. Well Enjoy the pics. Oh by the way, its 9 to 9 and the temp is already 77. Stay cool.
