August Garden Update

The garden looks very lush this time of year.  The gourds and jackolanterns, cucumbers and watermelons reach farther and farther into the lawn every day.  We have harvested a decent crop of green beans, a few tomatoes for eating raw, a nice bunch of carrots, lots of herbs and a handful of zucchini.

“Cabin” is the variety of tomato that is again the clear winner in my garden.  While the others have either died or are very small, Cabin is 9 feet tall and going strong.  Nothing set fruit as well as past years, but everyone else in town that I talk to tells the same story.  It’s just a bad gardening year.

    You have a spacey garden and I love it. Your garden looks so great. The plants are all over your place that makes your place awesome. I wished I have a garden like yours.
