Summer Garden Fun

Flowers and pollinators…nasturtium, chamomile, lavender, sunflowers, and bees.

Vegetables this year are tomatoes and zucchini…

And, of course, best of all…friends who enjoy the garden.

 

Summer Garden

My yarn beckons as autumn approaches, and I’m excited to get back to my needles, since my knitting and crochet definitely took a backseat to my garden this summer!

To begin the garden, I built three 4 x 8 garden boxes, along with three seven-foot Square Foot Gardening kind of trellises.  As I was using the wheelbarrow to bring in soil, I had some help from Jasper and Delilah:

The eggplant, tomatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe, and squash got off to a good start…

And the eggplant and squash flowering was so beautiful…

I am amazed at the changes that continue to appear every single day as the garden offers up its rewards.  What a delightful summer it has been!
