Well things are still slowly happening here. Tomatoes are still green, peppers haven't set a real crop though I'm getting a few. All them gladiolus have only harvested about 20 in bloom so far. Zukes are still kicking out, made bread and butter pickles from most all the cukes I picked pollination has been poor and still a lot are misshapen but just right for slicing into pickles. Will do a batch of hot peppers next...Hungarian Wax sliced into rings it looks like I may have just enough to fill a quart jar right now.
Eggplant its awesome this year harvested 1/2 dozen last week and have more to pick this week too. Made eggplant parm twice now! Sunflowers been blooming ok and cut a nice bouquet of them for a friends birthday this past weekend.
Still been cool, one hot week then bam right back down into the high +40's F overnight Sat and Sunday. Was like +56F this morning
Chard still looks good in the cool and wet and Brussel sprouts are just loving it. All the beans are ancient history now never got any. And made pea soup from what few peas I got this year.
Blueberries have been awesome I picked twice a day 3 times last week Had so many pints I had to freeze a few.

Tilled up my three 4’ x 30’ raised beds last weekend. Got two six packs of tomatoes and one of squash. Couple scoops of pinto beans but didn’t get around to planting any of it.

Just tilled today. A bit over 80' wide and about 100' long.
Speaking of blueberries, two new additions to mine:
These came from SC. Apparently spring is a bit farther along there. I've got about 20 bushes of various varieties and sizes, they are just starting to indicate they are coming out of dormancy. We still have some teens and several freezes in the forecast, so these new ones will need to stay in the sun parlor until later. I transferred them from the 1QT containers into the 1GA pot shown.

Wheeee! What a garden! I had one about 50 X 50, and was all I could take care of. I have my onions planted, and will put in my lettuce and radishes asap. About a month early her for tomatoes, peppers and cukes.
