Our summer garden harvest has come to an end.


I mainly blog as to keep a visual journal of the progress of our garden and for my crafty projects. Does anyone blog anymore? I love to, sometimes, look back at all the progress and what did well where. This year was not a good year for the garden. I don't know if it was the bag compost or bag soil that I use to refresh the beds. Maybe it was the seeds, I don't know, but I do know I was not the only one. Lot's of garden blogs and channels have said the same thing. Some of these folks have been at it for much longer than I have and they really know what they're doing, unlike me, lol. So I don't feel too bad about it, I got the experience and I feel Blessed that God allowed me to have a garden space at all. He is good and I'm sure he wanted me to learn some good garden lessons this year and I did.  




My first time grow these and they were small. Maybe I pick too soon???? But they were tender and delish. 


This is what I'm most proud of this year, the grapes. I forgot what these are called, but a local gardener told me to get these kind and she was right, sweet. James and I could not believe that we grew our own grapes. 


These peaches are from my sister's tree. The first tree I planted here was a peach tree, like 3 and half years ago. No a thing yet, this year I did get lots of pretty blooms. But, a freeze knocked them all off. Was I suppose to cover the tree??? My sister did not???

 

Collecting garden "Stuff".


I love junking around and these are some of my fav pieces. They don't match and they are junky, but pretty to me. Always on the hunt for new pieces, some of these have been with me for years.
