The okra is enjoying August weather. We had to replant after the hail this spring.
Our first bean harvest will be tomorrow morning. These were planted by volunteer - Holly.
We turned under our first crop of buckwheat a few weeks ago and it's returned as planned. Buckwheat is our summer cover crop this year and starts setting seed from the bottom up. Once we had enough seed set, Franklin turned it under and soon we had our second (free) crop.
Kid's Garden: A week and a half ago four kids planted three beds and you can see the results. They need to be thinned and need a little flea bettle control, but other than that, the kids are on their way to harvesting their own crop for the hungry.
