Seed Order

May have ordered seeds for our deer's garden today!  Hopefully not, as we get our fencing in order.  I ordered from my usual sources, and my usual vegetables from Southern Exposure and E&R Seeds.  E&R are Amish and not online, but they carry our tomatoes and green beans.  I think I will also try Kandy Korn corn this year planted in a 3 sister plot.  I like to support Southern Exposure and Baker Creeks heirloom seed production.  I got lots of new flowers to try this year from Baker Creek.  I will keep you posted.

House Plants

It took one month of reserach, planning and repotting to get all the house plants back inside from the yard.  I think this may be the last time some of the big ones are moved in and out.  They are getting too big and I am too old.  Here are some photos of all the house plants and art.

We could not keep the deer out of the garden this year.  They ate all the fall greens.

Fall Planting

We tilled and planted our fall plot of turnips and greens ahead of a promised rain.  We got 2.75 inches!  Our drought was broken last week with a 1.5 inch rain, and summer garden is starting to produce.
