There are some mysterious pests getting into the blackberries...good thing this is looking like our best year yet,
so there are plenty for hungry boys.
We've been eating cherry tomatoes for about a week now.Our other varieties still have a few more weeks.
C'mon, salsa!!
This is our first year trying watermelons, and this is the biggest one so far
(about the size of a lemon).
I love rhubarb, and of course, we have been harvesting that fora while now. I've even had enough to share!
The herb garden's first year.I am really enjoying it, but I need to find more uses
for each herb.
We've also harvested some of the Yukon gold potatoes,
Purple Queen bush beans, and a few raspberries.
It's been a slow year, but the heat is finally
getting things moving.

Yum...your berries look great! What kind of herbs did you plant? Your garden is looking great! I wish I would have planted the purple queens this year. They are what I usually plant, but I decided to try some french filet beans, which weren't as good! :( I am starting a new crop of purple queens when Aaron and I get back in a week, and will hope for a long fall!
Hi, Laura! I planted chamomile, savory, marjoram, basil, apple mint, and cilantro (which is going to seed and I'm hoping to get some coriander, which I've never used, either!)
I am interested in what other things you might plant for a fall crop, we have several empty spaces in our beds that I would love to harvest SOMETHING from!
I hope you have a great trip! :-)
your blackberries and rhubarb is enviable! I love garden posts! I have to do one myself one of these days. Have HAD the pictures, just not the time. :-)
Do you like/eat garlic? Garlic is a crop you can plant in the fall and it will be ready to harvest for spring.
You can also do peas, lettuce, tomato, beets as fall crops too. Check out cool weather crops and you will likely find a few more.
Herbs are something I need to get more into. I have a lot of COOKNG herbs, but I would love things like camomile and echinachea and lemon verbena for teas, health, and cleaning purposes.
Happy summer to you!
Did your rosemary cutting survive?
