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.
peas planted!

garden in the rain
We've gotten stuck in a wet weather pattern for most of this week. I'm curious to check out my rain gauge at my community plot.
Most of my vegetables love this weather and are growing like crazy! If I skip a day of going by my plot, I appalled at how much plants have grown. My potato plants are enormous! And the peas. The favas, onions and carrots seem to enjoy it too.
Oh! it looks so great! I wish I had some rain, it is so very dry and hot weather here in Sweden, the soil is like concrete. This morning I preformed a rain dance....hm I hope that will help :)
ReplyDeleteA rain dance. That should do it! Good luck.
ReplyDeleteYour vegetable garden looks great - so many different kinds of vegetables :) We are waiting here in Poland for the rain a lot, since it didn't rain for at least 3 weeks.
