Just a week after returning from summer vacation the garden is planted and sprouting. It did come at the cost of a few sweaty days and a visit to the chiropractor yesterday, but well worth it. If you are a local friend you are about 75 days away from "saladpalooza o9" (invitations to follow) If you are from afar .......Sorry. So far we have planted bush beans, pole beans, white pattypan squash, dill, swiss chard(pictured above), sweet bell peppers, habaneros, jalapenos, basil, scallions, red onion, white icicle radish, beets, brussels sprouts, butter lettuce, leaf lettuce, acorn squash, summer squash, nasturtiums, and a field of sweet corn in 5 gallon buckets and a few heirloom tomato varieties. And as the next few months pass we will be planting cool weather crops.
It should also be noted that Sweet and Sour chickens are now productive egg layers and I will no longer be threatening them with four letter words like "soup"or
There are several friends visiting us this winter! If you are not one of them but would like to be and you are sure that we like you a lot..... a real lot. Then let us know. We spend all year with each other and it gets really old. So we love guests. We are a mile from the beach and have a great secluded spot with water views to hang out at. So come and enjoy! Mi casa su casa mu chacho!
