The garden at the end of July

It's fun to look back a month ago to see how big all these plants have gotten in the past month!  This month the peas have been winding down, although still producing.  Additionally, we've had plenty of lettuce, some green beans, a head of broccoli, and plenty of zucchini.  The carrots will probably be fully mature soon (we've eaten a couple just to "check on them"), and the tomato plants have a bunch of green fruit on them.  Additionally, the winter squash plants are getting bigger, and we have a few volunteer pumpkins already growing.

Also, PEEPOSAURS!








You  can't help but love the fluffy chicken butts.

These plants needed water.  They have since received some.

Spot the tomatoes!

A few winter squash getting watered.

The sunflowers are getting big!  Next year I will hopefully get more herbs growing
in this area.  The perennial lavender, rosemary, and sage are a good start, though.
I'm thinking I'll try to get some chard, spinach, and kale growing here this fall.
I almost might have a few broccoli and cauliflower transplants to fill in some space...
