Today's Harvest:
The bottom leaves are getting quite yellow on my Sungold plant, so I gave the bed a sprinkle of slow release organic fertilizer, and the yellowing plant a shot of fish emulsion. Hopefully that will supply enough nutrients to correct the problem and keep the plants healthy as they put on their new growth.
HAPPY GARDENING, SUMMER STYLE!

Congrats on having a tomato and lettuce in the same photo, that's not an easy feat! Hope your lettuces continue to produce this summer.
I have been sowing the cut and come mixes under shade cloth every two weeks, and so far they are still tasty. The head lettuce has not gone bitter yet either. Shade cloth rocks!!
Time to celebrate---oh, that delicate morsel-the first tomato!!
As Erin says, it's not easy getting a tomato while the lettuce is still going. Congrats!
:)
Oh how wonderful it is to pick the first tomato of the season!!
Congrats on the first ripe cherry tomato Kel! I think you're the first one in our area to get one.
Lol, one being the key word there Thomas!
Looks wonderful Kelly. I hope to try out that shade cloth this fall, mainly to ward off the bugs.
Have a great summer!
Lookin' good!
Hello, I wanted to let you know that I enjoy your blog. I am growing my romaine lettuce in my woodland garden bed and it seems to be very happy in the shade. The decision to plant there was made solely because I had run out of room in the regular garden plot.
I came across your blog by accident. I love the veg area you've created. I've joined as a follower and I hope to follow your progress. All the best, Kelli in Northern Ireland.
Id like to invite everyone to read a blog post today of a woman who joined the old order Mennonite church from the outside. I'm extremely lucky in publishing her very first, and most likely last post on Amish Stories. A lot of work was involved in her getting permission to be even able to write anything on the internet, and permission was given by her bishop. So please stop by and read about a woman who gave-up her car and other worldly possessions for the person that she loved. Richard from Amish Stories
Hey Kel, you've been MIA lately! Hopefully you're too busy enjoying your summer to be blogging. :)
Those veggies from your garden look very scrumptious! They are perfect and look fresh for the summer. However, it would also be the right time to prepare a serving of winter vegetable salad for the holiday season. =)
I love vegetables, especially when they are freshly picked from a garden. I'm practically a vegan, actually. I tried to make a garden before, but I just didn't have a green thumb. LOL!
