Garden update


To say our garden was a success in an understatement. After not knowing if anything would grow in the unknown soil we have been pleasantly surprised that all of our vegetables have grown! (the pictures are from July)
We have had tons and tons of tomatoes - mostly cherry tomatoes for my salad and they are so yummy. We did get a lot of squash and zucchini but they were really seedy so I didn't use too many of those. We also harvested some green beans and just a few sugar snap peas - the squash plants overtook the pea plants, unfortunately.
We now have the most amazing sunflowers - taller than our garage - and planted from seed.
My grandpa DeVries would be very proud - just hope he can't see all the weeds I haven't picked!
