Okay, apparently I was the last to know about Eyes of Wonder. I will try to be more on top of things next time. LOL
Not an exceptional harvest, but we were excited to have fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet onions, and eggs. **Not picturered-3 strawberries and 1 blackberry, ha! ha! I have bowls in the freezer, so I just fix them as I pick them and toss them in the freezer. Maybe someday I’ll have enough to actually make something.
I found this the other day while I was doing chores. How perfect it is! I felt bad for the little bird who worked so hard to build it, but apperently forgot to attach it to the tree. ~Smile
This is our miniature peach tree. Due to weather it has yet to be very productive, but at least it’s pretty. My herb garden consists of:
Pineapple Sage (this smells absolutely amazing, I want to make an ice drink out of it as soon as I figure out how), Oregano, Chives, Lemon Balm, Rosemary (in a pot nearby), Rhubarb (not an herb, but needed to get it in the ground somewhere), Thyme, Peppermint (in a pot nearby), and Basil. I also have chamomile, echinacea, and parsley planted in a different area.I also ordered a miniature lemon tree, lime tree, two grape vines, and a blueberry bush from Gurney’s this spring. Everything is doing great so far. Winter will be the true test. The lemon and lime trees will have to be moved inside. A friend of Randy’s has offered to give us a large green house structure. We will just have to purchase the plastic. I am so excited! Now to find a spot, hmmm.
