I don't know HOW you narrowed your favorites down to 6...all of these are so beautiful! And for whatever reason I am partial to the ones with dirt!

Chelsea said...

New to your blog. Love it!

Tracey said...

Wow what great photos and what a great years harvest! This is enough to inspire all vegetable growers and beginners. Lets get sowing!

Rachel said...

What a great perspective on the garden season . Just think of all the money you saved growing your own veggies.

Holly said...

This is so inspiring! Is it time to get out into the garden yet?

Leslie said...

Alleluia !!!

I really like the harvest photo laying in blogger. Is it a simple widget from flicker that does that or did you code it by hand?

I want to do it on my pages.

Keith, My photos are all uploaded a Flickr. I used the thumbnail version to insert in this post. They are 100x67 px if you want to use the same format. Crop photos to 4x6.

Keith Rowell said...

Thanks a million for the reply. I'll try that.

Wow. This is such a gorgeous post. All of the colors and delicious produces are fantastic. Hopefully I'll be able to to do a similar post on all of the strange things I'll be growing in my forest garden, if and when it happens.

Looking forward to the progress on your sweet potatoes. I'm seen some of my store bought ones start to sprout before, and I'll always been curious...
