New Gate

Here is a photo of the beautiful gate that Justin completed. It does give us a presence now, doesn’t it?

Most of our fall transplants are surviving the July heat. I lost one tomato and one pepper plant in the last week.

Besides the bunnies, we are also battling rats for our produce! Some of the trials we are experiencing make me think of how hard it was for our ancestors to survive this land when they first settled the area. My hats off to them! The thought puts things in perspective when I think we’re having problems.

I’m going to put on some more fertilizer tomorrow to give everything a boost. The eggplants are really growing now and it’s getting hard to keep up with the cucumbers. Happy gardening everyone.
