The Vegetable Garden in Early June

From ugly lawn to Garden of Eden.  To think that we began the work in February blows my mind.

The joy this vegetable garden has added to our lives is hard to measure. We are always outside, gardening or picking or enjoying the many surprises the garden offers.  Is it work? Yes. But it's work in the same way that raising children is work. Enough love and enjoyments comes with it that we don't call it work.

In fact, I mostly feel that the plants do all the work and all we do is get the reward of their effort.

Bush beans in front and tomatoes behind them.


A wee watermelon plant.




Corn in back, cucumber in the center, and yet to be identified squashes in corners. We still have not learn to label things.

Everything humming with life.
