Down...but not out!



It is time for us to stop watering the garden. There is no way that we can sensibly keep ahead of the drought. what happens next is tearing out many of the plants--like the tomatoes--and then some diligent weeding. This will occur over the next several weeks.

In the mean time we do need to start watering the trees and shrubs around the church yard; they are in tough shape and in danger of dying after two plus years of dry weather. If we get some sufficient rain in the next few weeks we'll start putting in some fall plants. Anyway, if you want some green tomatoes now is the time to get them.
