My Garden

This is some of my "mini" farm.

This is Sugar Creek. A small creek but it does show up on the map.
Also where I came up with the name sugar creek stuff.
It runs near my garden.
My garden in early July.
This year I have asparagus, basil, beans, beets (mostly for the tops in salads), carrots, corn, cucumbers, dill, lettuces, green onions, oregano, peas, peppers, radishes, rhubarb, tomatoes, and zucchini. Also some edible flowers to pretty up the salads. I also planted pumpkins but the late season rains, did them all in.
I suffer from SAD. And am so blah by the end of winter, this is my therapy. May and June, on sunny days, I live out here in very little clothes getting as much sun as I can. Lucky for the neighbors it is a private place. By July I have had enough of the heat and start getting ready for my early August craft show and the weeds get the best of me. But in spite of the weeds, my early hard work pays off.

My girls are very curious so they have to come and check out to see if they are missing any treats. Nope mom is going to be blanching and freezing beens tonight!
