May Garden

The weather here has been beautiful and gardening is well underway. Planting is done, except for separate corn and melon gardens. And pumpkins. I thought you'd like to see how things are growing so far this spring.


the vegetable garden
The blueberries are beginning to ripen.
The red iceberg has been especially pretty this year.

Concord grapes
We've already picked a few peaches and the rest are ripening quickly.


 The Ein Shemer apples are growing large. The other apple trees are just beginning to leaf out and one of the Anna apples has blossoms.
beets

Sugar Snax carrots

The Tom Thumb peas were a great success. I'll plant those from now on.

zucchini

purple and green basil


potato blossoms

The fall onions are flowering.

The spring onions are coming along. Very pleased with these onions from Dixondale.

The sunflowers are beginning to show.

cauliflower

We've been picking lots of broccoli. We've picked all the main heads but there are tons of little side shoots to pick.

And the strawberries just keep coming!

The elderberries are going to have fruit this year.

There was even a little honey in the hive.
I hope that your spring is off to a good start as well.
