Summer Garden week 11
The weather here in Southeast Texas has been perfect for growing summer veggies, one comment I seem to get most often is how we are already so far along with our garden and most living in northern states are just planting. Well that is because here near the gulf coast during July and August it […]

Summer Garden week 9
The garden is doing amazingly well. Each day we have several squash, tomatoes, green beans and peppers to pick. We are quickly filling up all the space in our fridge, so this weekend I am going to be doing lots of freezing of the veggies. It so fun once the veggies start coming in. All of DT’s […]

Summer garden week 4
It’s already week 4 of the garden and she is growing along beautifully. DT has continued to water every other day and we’ve had some cooler mornings this past week which is really nice, but the cooler air has brought in some dryness that we aren’t use to here in South east Texas. Last week I received a few […]
