Garden Update

We've had an unusually wet and warm summer. The garden is just exploding. Everything is at least a week ahead of schedule.

We tried a radish mix and were fairly pleased by the outcome.

These are asparagus ferns after we were done eating asparagus. They get huge and ferny and have to remain so for the rest of the summer. Take a look at the very wide asparagus stem. It looked like 4 stems growing all together.

We've never seen anything like it. The asparagus came up just fine when we were harvesting it. It will be interesting to see what comes up there next year.

Here are some June 30th pictures. We started harvesting beans about a week later.

Stephen in the corn. This was also taken June 30th. Our corn was way past knee high at the fourth of July. I think we'll get corn a full two weeks before we usually get corn.
