The garden is growing phenomenally. This was taken a couple of days ago, and we've had a heap of rain since then, so believe me that it's even larger now.
We've gotten 1 bunch of lettuce so far, which made some yummy salads. There are two more bunches out there but we haven't had salad with dinner in a few days. We need to soon, though, because they're getting bug-eaten. We've also gotten three beans (yes folks, three whole beans!) from the bean bushes. And there's one cucumber that should be ready to eat in a week or so, and a ton of cucumbers and pickling cucumbers that are just beginning to grow. The zucchini are a bit slower, but there are plenty of blossoms. And the tomatoes are blossoming too. Ah, the vegetable excitement of a garden!
