The weather here has been warm and sunny now for several weeks, and the garden has responded to all of the heat and light. The peas and beans are doing well, as are the Choggia Beets and swiss chard.
This last weekend, I found some garden supports, one wood and one metal, to put in the raised beds to support the plants as they continue to grow. They add an ornamental quality to the garden, too, and it won't be long before the beans and peas have completely taken over these structures.
The garden is a place of hope, where we tend our plants and flowers daily, and then sit back and wait for nature to take its course. It's a commitment of time and energy, but the reward are great.
As I grow in my technical knowledge of horticulture, I'm hoping for a better garden each year. That's my dream, anyway. We'll see.
