One of Mrs. O'Toole's sunflowers says, "Good morning!"An amazing array of flowers and vegetables has burst into the limelight this week. After days...and days of celebrating the merest progress (except for cucumbers!) we have entered into the period of time all gardeners love and dread: lots of great stuff...that has to be picked right now.
Susan peeking and picking, Thursday morning.
A few squash plants continue to avoid the onslaught of the dreaded beetle we've discussed before, but most of them are deader than a doornail. Otherwise, the corn is doing well with only a few borers at the head, we have a wealth of tomatoes, and the green beans are stringing us along just fine.
Pick me! Pick me!The Community Garden is your garden. If you wander in and a vegetable or flower cries out, "Pick me! Pick me!" please oblige. After all, we want happy vegetables!
That basket of goodies lasted about 5 seconds at Loaves and Fishes. All were appreciative.
