Wow, its been a while since I updated this page.
Not much of anything has happened the last few weeks, it is sort of like watching paint dry.

Anyhow, I spent the weekend doing a section of the AT with a buddy, scrambling rocks, dodging snakes, getting soaked, you know... the fun stuff.

We finished up the trail a bit early and headed back to my trailer to reward ourselves a bit. We figured we burnt all those calories on the trail so we need to get them back.

And we did and then some!

OK...Back to the garden

Oats are doing well

I pretty much have given everything free reign to grow, I just chopped down all the cabbages and all but one of the Bok Choy and laid them out as mulch. I even let the weeds get to a decent size before pulling and placing back in the garden...nothing is removed!

Sage, Horseradish, Chocolate mint and phlox are all doing well.

There's always one knucklehead.

Last years leeks, I may save for seeds

The Cape Gooseberry in this planter is doing real well.

Something has been munching on the Comfrey, this was a good call planting the comfrey here, the turtles love hanging here.

Bad pic, but my first year getting Blueberries.

Training the Reliance Grapes

My only head of broccoli, about the size of a quarter, I will never try to grow cabbage, broccoli or Brussels Sprouts again.

Yacon, the only survivor of 4 plants

BeeBalm

No sign of my Jerusalem Artichokes.

The Box Car Willie is doing great. Parsley is doing well too, not sure about the Beets.

Snow Peas

Jalapeno, Jimmy Nardello and Poblanos in the Aquaponics veggie filter are doing well.

The pond plants are doing well.

Artichoke

Blackberries.

Table Dainty

Bok Choy for the pollinators

Training the Concord Grapes

Spaghetti Squash.
