Day 71

Well, another morning without a camera.  Shucks.  Here is a picture from last Wednesday that is pretty awesome.

Today was exciting because we picked the first of the summer squash.  There were two bountiful bushels of both yellow and green.  Also we picked a half bushel of purple, green, and yellow beans, greens, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and kale. 

 Curiously enough, I took a similar picture three years ago.

Day 68

Uh oh!  I woke up this morning and my camera ceased to be functioning.  Just last night I was telling someone how awesome that camera is- maybe I should have knocked on some wood!  Nonetheless, even without the pictures to prove it, we had a great harvest this morning.  There were lots of cucumbers, three colors of beans, wonderful swiss chard, and lots of kale.  I am hoping the dining hall will make some kale chips with the kale, but I will have to remember how to do it first.  Yum!

The sunflowers are blooming!

Day 64

A wonderful harvest this morning!  Greens and beans and cucumbers and peppers, what more could you ask for???

Swiss Chard

Day 61

It was a busy day in the garden this morning.  At good number of people showed up for this morning's garden party, and it was a trick keeping everyone busy.  Things that usually take me an hour alone or with someone else get done soooo fast when their are five pairs of hands working together.  Among the things we accomplished this morning are:

1) Transplanting the last tomatoes
2) Planting asparagus roots
3) Major harvesting action- salad greens, turnips, green onions, radishes, green beans, cucumbers
4) Helping train the pole beans
5) Having fun!

Thanks so much for the help everyone!!!  I couldn't do it without you
