June Progress

So I find myself overseas this month which tends to happen nearly every summer. I am, therefore, unable to tend to my garden the way I would like and it is now in the hands of my carefree brother. In any case, here are the latest pictures from early June which show major improvements in the garden center and major onion growth! Also happy to report that tomatoes, dill, and mint are thriving. The jalapenos, however, (shown in the last image) appear to have been eaten by an unknown creature/insect. Hopefully this will not be the end of them as I am really looking forward to eating their development.

Garden Reunion

One more day until I'm reunited with my garden for a brief time. Very excited to see if any and/or all vegetables have sprung in my absence. Have gotten a hold of a few extra seeds including carrots, edamame, and poppy seeds from the War Museum in Ottawa which I intend to sow tomorrow weather permitting. Also plan to buy a blueberry shrub and perhaps more sweeter yielding plants. Will definitely take pictures of the latest botanical developments tomorrow...

In the meantime, if anyone wants a little dose of nature, check out this site:
