I ate my first tomato of the season this year. Two were ready and I ate them both; the early winner was Pink Bumblebee. Very good and a beauty to look at.
I like your pictures. Your garden looks great. I have some weeds in the old raised beds, which are approximately 5 years old, but it isn't much work to keep them clean.
I ate a tomato from the garden this morning. It was a Burpees Big Pink F1. It wasn't big but it really tasted good.
I picked another bed of Pike snap beans this morning. It was a first pick for the bed and the plants were loaded with beans. I picked 8 Colanders full which filled 4 grocery store plastic bags. May result in up to 20 quarts of frozen beans. Later Update: 23 quarts frozen in all.
Picture below. Our Cockatoo is keeping me company.
