Bleeker and Smiling Cat:
Bleeker: I absolutely love your new garden and fence! Oh, how I wish I had that much space to plant; I could actually can some! Oh what wishful thinking!
Smiling Cat: The produce looks absolutely wonderful. I'm just smacking my lips for the flavor of those wonderful tomatoes
I've been getting nice chard and zucchinis, but not much of anything else yet. We are too high 7,000 feet and too cold late to get an early crop. Most people and magazines that I hear about or read about are all getting their big bumper crops in June and July and I barely have anything to show for my garden yet. I do have several bell peppers that are pretty good size, some eggplant too; but they are by no means ready to harvest yet. I've had a few small tomatoes, but we never have great big ones or heirlooms. The larger tomatoes with the great acidic flavor just won't turn red here in our short season climate. I'm pretty happy so far with the garden this year. The plants out front in the pots are really doing well. I'll send another picture soon.
