I've got 8 tomato plants, but nothing ripening yet on those. Picking zuchinni already, using it in everything including Chocolate Cake (yummy)
Radishes are on the 4th or 5th planting too.........as is the mixed greens area for salads. There are 2 types of onions, Walla Walla sweets and a winter keeper.......I've been snipping off a couple onion greens for salads too lately.
Sugar snap peas, or pea pods,whatever they are really called........are growing like crazy. They really seem to like the hot weather. Stir frying them, and eating them raw in salads. They also make a terrific sweet pickle if you're into canning.
Green beans are setting...........I'll have enough to can a couple kettles worth I think, along with all we can eat fresh.
We did have strawberries earlier in the month.....not enough to freeze, but all we wanted to eat fresh & as desserts. (way more than I would have bought if I had to get them at the store)
A couple servings of cherries.........the tree is pretty small & there were birds sitting sentry on the crop!
Other squash that will be coming on later, for fall harvesting.....
The surprise is the rhubarb I transplanted earlier this summer, it has exploded and I have been using off of the plants all along. It is supposed to be a spring plant, but these are all mixed up. Plenty of rhubarb to freeze for use this winter.
Looking forward to getting more in my garden this coming year, when I've had more time to clear the ground.
