chelle said:My tomato wall. Same as last year, but the inter-planted beans really never had a chance this year. Hilarious! There's like maybe one in there??

Those are 6.5' stakes...they're big plants. After I took this shot I added another weave.


The pea fence...with its ugly critter-deterrent netting. Rolling my eyes. First shot: see the hummingbird on the fence? I have 4 feeders up, and if I had 10x that many I still don't think I'd have enough. I've sat out there and watched 3 feeders at once, with each one entertaining up to 20 birds. It's just amazing. One four-hole feeder actually had 5 birds feeding at the same time! It was only for a few seconds, but two birds were using the same hole! Rolling on the floor laughing

My poor unloved lettuce. I think I'll eat it all tomorrow. I keep saying that, but I never seem to get around to it. Sticking tongue out

Extra tomatoes, a few beans, and peppers...these still have quite a ways to go. They've had much less compost, and more of our lovely root-clamping clay. Rolling my eyes.

The sun finally came out today. It's really pretty and enjoyable to see when it's been missing for an extended period of time. Smiling



It all looks pretty good to me! Thumbs up
