I just picked a super large bag of green beans from my small row in my community garden. It is only just the beginning too! Better get my pickling station set-up!

Garlic Harvest!
Yeah Garlic Harvest!!
I harvested my garlic! Last fall I planted 25 bulbs of my dear friends bradley's garlic & now I have 25 bulbs & close to 400 bulbs to re-plant.
I love seed saving! It just makes sense.
Some of the garlic cracked open. I guess I'll have to eat these ones!
tied up to be hung & cured for re-planting this fall
Hanging in my porch to dry
July vegetable gardens
Despite my late start in getting my garden planted, things are growing along splendidly! My tomatoes & peppers are finally starting to flower. Yeah!

Perennial Garden Love!!!
I am so in love with my garden it is unbelievable. It really is in its blooming glory right now. It's a little bitter sweet. the development in my neighbourhood will most likely lead to its forced removal. sadness & heartbreak.
I will enjoy every bloom while i can.
