Garden update

Our garden is growing! We had quite a bit of rain, and some snow, this spring, but now it's sunny and warm most days. So our plants are progressing nicely.


we decided to try corn this year


Strawberries are a favorite, we have already picked and eaten quite a few. They are red all the way through, tender and very sweet.


The peas are just starting to appear. I picked a few Tuesday morning to share with Jonas.

Our tomatoes are doing well, one plant already has a few tomatoes on it.
We put them outside a little early and a few branches got nipped with the cold; we look forward to some juicy, flavorful tomatoes later this summer.

This is our first planting of carrots for the season

Our second crop of lettuce and spinach, soon it will be too hot for these crops.

We had rosebushes along this fence, but they didn't survive the winter. Last week we replaced them with these privet and sand cherry bushes.

Our two hydrangea bushes come back every spring, and we get some beautiful blooms.

We thought this clematis was dead, but it made a big come back.
Someday we will have an arbor for it to climb.
