Garden Harvest

One of the really nice things about where we live is that we have a co-op garden. Not really sure why they call it co-op, but basically you get a little plot of earth that you can use to grow whatever you want. We have had our garden for over 3 years now, and we just love it. Well, most of the time. Right now we definitely love it. We get a new zucchini almost everyday, and our green bell pepper plants are hanging heavy with over 20 peppers. We have enjoyed carrots and garlic, and we are sad the the strawberry season is finally coming to a close. Our tomato plants are large and have many green tomatoes - we can’t wait until they ripen. We only hope that we can keep our basil alive long enough to enjoy some bruschetta with the harvest. The green beans are coming up, and every morning we are greeted by large and lovely bright blue morning glories. Yesterday Harrison helped me plant some bachelor buttons, California Poppies and pumpkins. So that will be fun. Our lettuce is going to seed, which means it’s time to replant. An activity that Harrison will most definitely want to help with. So, although I may gripe from time to time at the constant need of watering, the truth be told, I love our garden.
