Garden Update

Here Amber, this is for you:


He's been wearing it like crazy since it came home. Today he modified it to fit under the bee veil, we just saved $16!

Two weekends ago it was super nice and we got the garden all tilled up and composted.


I'm so thankful we did because this is what it's been doing for the last week:



I caught it at an especially bad time this morning. The poor bees just want to work! Every sun break they come out, but it's usually short lived.

I took these yesterday during a short sun break. Radishes - I love their sweet little butterfly leaves.

Beets



Carrots


The potatoes are going strong


So are the onions


The corn is up amazingly, and so are the few other things that I've planted. I still have lots of space, but I may keep some of it open for successive crops.

Erin your garden looks great! That is so cool! Some day I'll have a garden...

This year my parents tilled 4 beds instead of 2, and the kids helped plant lots of stuff a couple of weeks ago, I'll have to go check it out ;-)

So impressed with your garden; when did you start planting?
