Finally! Summer veggies are coming along. I find myself very, very impatient with the veggies this year. Tomatoes are finally starting to ripen, so there is a little sampler in each bag this week (and Early Girl or Stupice, and a few sungold cherry tomatoes). There is more selection suddenly this week, too, so let's hope that keeps up! This is the time of year when the bags get bigger and heavier, and it makes up for the first shares that were all little and weenie! I've still been planting winter crops, and since it finally rained yesterday, I got some of the lettuces and mesculin in, so a couple of weeks from now, we should start seeing greens in the bags again. I love greens! Nothing like a yummy salad fresh from the garden with dinner every night!

This week:

potatoes
chard
beans (green and dragon's tongue)
onion
carrots
zucchini
jalapeno pepper
tomatoes (early girl and sungold cherry)
cucumber

Wow! I can't believe we are halfway through already! This summer is going by wayyyy too quickly. Things look great, but some things are still late, late, late. Tomatoes, for instance. I keep expecting them to be ready any second now, but they stubbornly refused to get red. Or yellow, or blue. Driving me crazy. Tomatoes have to be my very favourite summer garden veggie, and I want a steady supply. I planted enough of them (over 1000 plants!) so I really should have tomatoes by now!! Ok, admittedly, I got one Stupice tomato last week. I gobbled it in seconds. I spied a second one reddening today, so hopefully this will be the beginning of a bumper crop. Will keep you posted! Beans are in full swing now. Last week, you got a sampling of dragons tongue. This week, we have more dragons, plus green and yellow beans, with the odd purple one thrown in for good measure.

This week:
mixed snap beans
garlic
zucchini
basil
red onion
carrots
green onions
thyme

Whew... busy, busy week! Planting many new fall crops, and watching the tomatoes slowly start to ripen...

This week:

Garlic
Zucchini
Cucumber
Arugula/nasturtium mix (mmmm, spicy!!)
carrots
dragon's tongue snap beans
oregano

To save extra oregano, you can freeze, but drying is best for this one!!
