Toil With Soil

The garden is coming along wonderfully, but I continue to hold my breath, because the only pestilence I fight with is unending weeds. Six hours one day, four hours the next - but progress is being made! I finally got my tomato cages up as well as my pea fence. Ive been enjoying some fresh radishes when I need a little garden snack, but so far that's it. The lettuce is growing well, peas should soon be setting pods and the beans are growing well. The corn is up about 4 inches and the potatoes that got in late are all popped up. The raspberries will bear wonderfully this year if I can beat the birds to them. The bushes are just loaded. There is so much excitement in looking ahead to all the food that the garden could produce this summer.
