This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.

just another pretty weed
A little daisy fleabane (Erigeron annuus) has volunteered in my garden between the broccolis and kale. Its a pretty wildflower that's native to our area.
This fleabane plant is getting enormous. I'm glad it volunteered as its one of my favorites. And there aren't many wildflowers left at this time of year.

It's always nice to have a few 'flowers' mixed in with the vegetables. The fleabane is a nice one to have, if you are going to have a volunteer.

Once again, you turn something common into masterpiece. I love your photography...and yes all your food, cooked and uncooked makes my mouth water!
