The Patty Pan Squash are coming....

so the harvest of Patty Pan squash has been prolific. I went to just 'check' my garden and came back with all of these:

And blackberries I picked from my CSA!

Ode to SUNFLOWERS!

I just can't get enough of these sunflowers- they are all heirloom varieties with wonderful names and colors :)

SUCCESS with the clay oven!

So last night I had my 'locavore dinner club' over and I tried out our outdoor clay oven. This was built many moons ago by some wonderful owners/gardeners using the clay from a nearby lake! Anyhow, although it looks abit 'rough' it worked like a charm. We had delicious pizzas: artichoke and sausage; and pesto/queso blanco/mozarella.

ONIONS are in!

Check out my garden helper, Katie. She plucked out our lovely onions!

Thinking to next years garden...ALREADY!

I had some wonderful veggies from Gail's garden today....and made me think I want to plant some more things next year.

• GOLDEN SWISS CHARD- from abundantsees.org. Amazing taste, less bitter than normal chard. LOVED IT!
• melons, some kind of sweet fleshy type
• more DILL!
• fingerling potatoes
• Sunberry's
• Blueberries
• blackberries/rasberries
• MORE garlic
• that cherry tomatoe that I loved from Gail's....like little orange balls of goodness!
• more chamomile
• Kale
• Beets
• Turnips

OK, that is all for now!

BLUEBERRIES!

They are here, and in the truckloads! Always remember, end of June is blueberry time! Here are some pics from Eagle Tree Farm, a U-pick place for blueberries. $4.00/lbs.
