Our weather has flipped from very hot to quite cool, dry to pouring rain for days. By today, I wasn’t sure what I would find as I finally wandered outside. Bert has already pumped the water twice from the rain barrels by the shop up to the larger one by the garden so we’re ready to water as needed.

Because of all the crazy weather, we found the strawberries were not doing well in the tower, so we had to take it apart to give the plants more light. A few plants didn’t make it, but others have already sent out runners, so we’ll have to wait and see what happens. Here is what they looked like two weeks ago:

All the other beans look about the same as above…I can’t get the pictures to download! Grrr! Very frustrating!


So much for trying to show you everything! These are the only pictures that will download today! Luckily, all the other sections have pretty small plants, so hopefully by the time there’s something to see, the pictures will download! Check back in a week or two!
