Seed Order is In

I am not planting a spring garden this year, just summer and fall.  Peas hardly ever do well, and it gets to hot to soon for lettuce and spinach.  The fall garden is much more successful for greens.  Hopefully my CSA farmer will have good luck with peas.

Harvest

Suffering a major drought here in central Kentucky.  Still, we got a bushel of tomatoes and a few peppers.  We ate one helping of fried okra...but really need rain to get much more.

Bean Week

Last week was bean week here at Buzzard Roost.  David picked the beans in the mornings since it rose to the upper 90s all week, so it took him a few days to get them all picked.  Then in the evenings we watch a movie while we shuck the beans.  Then I freeze them.  We had 50 pints of pintos and 20 of red beans.  This is a lot of work, but well worth it for fresh beans.
