Garden update

I haven't posted a whole lot about the garden - yet.

We did very well this year getting things started indoors - we've been harvesting windowsill lettuce since before Easter, and just took the "indoor greenhouse" down and packed it away.  The seedlings have all been planted - tomatillo, heirloom tomatoes, peppers, and soybeans all found their start in my dining room, and are now thriving outside.

Potatoes are sprouting, strawberries are berrying and I even have a small crop of blueberries on 1 of the 2 bushes we planted last year (the deer nipped the blossom tips off the other one).

Flowers are flowering...
Rubarb is ... well ...... HUGE!!!

It is looking to be a good year - so far.

Looks great! We are expanding our garden this year from 3 plants to 5! Hoping we enjoy something new and that the bunnies and chipmunks don't steal it all!
