Update July 23

Rainbow!

Took this one for Judi-- We have some chokecherries (hers and Mom's all froze).  If the birds don't eat them all, we'll have some!

Jeremy Fisher lost his outfit!

The squash is capturing our hearts right now, it's growing so fast you can nearly see it!  Soon, a large portion of Block 2 will be solid tangles vines.  We also attacked a frenchweed incursion on Monday.  The rain last week allowed thousands of these tiny seeds to germinate on the north side of the leafy rows (in the shade).  We noticed, and the stirrup hoes made short work of them!  Lucky we caught it while it was small.  When we arrived, we had a field of this weed, which is easy to kill, but abundant.

So many gorgeous squash blossoms right now!

Can't wait for filet beans to be ready!  I guess I have to-- might try to have some for supper tonight!

Heirloom tomatoes!  I think these are the Cherokee Purple.  Mmmmm!!

Field tomatoes are ripening, too.  We got to have some sweet cherry toms with our meal with Casey and Kyle and Zach on Monday night!

The eggplant is growing!

These are probably Anaheim (mild hot) peppers.  Need to take the field record book out with me sometime, all our tags are completely bleached out from the sun.  That's why planting record books are important!

Our house!  Flowers are doing well, I actually took care of them this year!

Lookout Sammy!  Frisbee incoming!

Sammy and Zach had a great time playing frisbee together!
