I have so many seedlings left that I decided to add these since the sunflowers were finished and I had the space now. A tomato addict can never have too many plants!

| These are waiting for homes! |
 |
| Picked this morning. I had one white eggplant, small but I picked it anyway. Today's lunch? See below! |

I am staying very busy picking summer squash and herbs right now. I have
been drying Greek and Mexican Oregano for winter. And blanching summer
squash for the freezer. I have never had this many scallop and patty
pan squash. I put in the same amount of plants as I always have but this
year I have had to pick every day. I filled the sink full again this
morning.

You have veggies galore ..... question...what is the purpose of the chicken wire around the June 23 plantings?
ReplyDeleteHi Mimi, we put that around the small plants until they get established to keep animals from digging around them. I use organic fertilizer and compost and many times this attracts animals. This has really helped me over the years. We also line all of our planting beds with chicken wire to keep gophers out.
DeleteThank you for visiting!
I am enjoying all your tomatoes and other gardening bounty so much...alas, none of the above for us this season as we will soon be on the road.
ReplyDeleteThat flatbread sandwich looks wonderful - something to enjoy on the deck with a glass of wine and good friends...a must try!
