Sunday:: Rest

It's been a very busy couple of weeks adjusting to a new schedule, but things are leveling out now and regular posts shall be resuming.

The garden has finally taken off and is looking like we may harvest some food out of it before Summer's end.

The Columbine has been flowering profusely for some time now -



The Rainbow Chard is going great guns and the rabbits get a leaf each every night before their dinner -



Bull's Blood Beets, Spinach, Kale, Potatoes, and lavender are really putting on some growth now that the weather is a bit warmer -



Tomatoes, tomatillos, onion, garlic, cabbage and cauliflower are all growing well despite the proliferation of that Gardener's Menace - slugs!



So far we've only lost a few plants to the voracious slugs and I hope that with warmer and drier conditions they will disappear until next year.
