How Our Garden Grows – September 2014

Garden Grows Sept2014 title

 

THE MAIN GARDEN

Pumpkins, gourds, squash & zucchini are growing well.

OUTSIDE THE GARDEN FENCE

Top Left: We’ve picked quite a few tomatoes this year. Unfortunately none of them have been getting much water, so the majority of them have been small. Right & Bottom Left: A few pumpkins and decorative gourds have survived the chickens.

 

FRUIT TREES

Apples! So, so happy our fruit trees are finally producing!

 

GREENHOUSE & AQUAPONICS

Tomatoes & tomatillos have been growing in a garden bed in the greenhouse. They are a bit leggy, but have many flowers.

 

HARVESTING & PRESERVING

I can’t help but be grateful that we can feed our family in this way. It’s a lot of work. It’s definitely time consuming. And, there is nothing quick or easy about it. I’m so glad to not only feed my kids good food, but also to show them everyday where their food comes from. It’s truly a rare treat in this modern world.
