Finally! My summer plot in the community garden is starting to really blossom. Now that all of the rain has subsided, my plants are soaking in the sun and growing. The kids and I took off to the gardens early this morning. We watered and harvested!! Another batch of chamomile to dry, 2 tomatillos, 1 zuchinni, 2 padron peppers and beans! This may very well be the beginning of harvesting during the month of August and into the Fall! Nehemiah helped me water in the community plot and pick beans. Zekie did what he does best, EAT! We all had a great morning and before we left my parents home, we stole some Spanish Tortas and ate them on the walk home.

Your children look adorable. Great garden! I'm afraid I don't have a green thumb. That's why I just head to the farmers market.

Wow, you're lucky to have an orchard, though it gives a lot of work indeed! It must be wonderful to eat your own produce.
