The garden is growing, and starting to produce little by little. Yesterday I was able to eat the first pole bean right off the vine, and we gave a couple of baby hungarian hot wax peppers to Poncho and Jesus. The apple tree and pear tree are LOADED with little baby fruits.
This weekend I hope to till the last two garden beds to get the winter squash and watermelons planted. Everything else is in the ground and growing away. I'll do the first neem oil spray of the year to make sure we don't get a pest problem as well.
All the corn is sprouted, the lettuce is going gangbusters. Our broccoli and Cauliflower are looking spectaculer, and the first sprouts of baby carrot foliage are peaking up. The potatoes are also all vining above ground now.
This Spring rain has set everything off on the right foot for a bountiful harvest, and we should have bushels of organic produce---enough to put away for winter, and share with friends.
