July 19, 2018 Garden Update

MacGreggor's Garden is starting to show a great deal of progress. In fact, the whole Farm is beginning to show progress. We aren't ready to open the Produce Stand yet, but we will have enough in early August.

The new patch is in the upper left corner (being watered).
We're eating lettuce and strawberries regularly now that the rodents have gone away (for the most part). The greenhouse tomatoes are beginning to ripen and we should see some red very soon. Potatoes, onions, and garlic are very happy. Beans, peas, peppers and tomatillos are coming along nicely. Melons, pumpkins, and our magic plants are all doing well. The garden is nearly a sea of green flowery happiness. So it's time to expand.

This morning I tilled another large area of the West Meadow to begin planting flowers and decorative stuff. The new garden plot is only about half as large as the vegetable garden. There aren't enough hours in the day for much more as we get ready to build the Farmhouse.

More to come on this later.

This is the Strawberry patch.
The Marigolds and Nasturtiums keep the bugs out.
