Growing garden

The garden is blooming despite the drought.  Although Dan does have to water it regularly.  So far, we've gotten kale from the garden daily, along with peas.  Our patch of kale looks small, but it just keep going and going and going.  The kale is in the middle of the picture below.  Disregard the weeds and grass all around it.  We do.




For the peas, Dan lined up a few cattle panels we had lying around and used them for the peas to climb up...




He also used a cattle panel for the green beans too, but bent it over so the beans can grow up and over from both sides...




We also have lots of tomato plants this year.  Last year we didn't hardly have any tomatoes and what we did have didn't ripen until really late in the year.  This year, 19 plants made it into the ground.  Homemade salsa and pasta sauce... here we come!
