One very rewarding thing about gardening is seeing your efforts start to bloom: literally. As we are getting out of June and into July, my garden is starting to bloom. Not the great big flowers for your table but the smaller ones that produce fruits, beans and vegetables.
I also harvested my first crop: turnips! I may not quite have peas by fourth of July but I expect to be pretty close!
Check out my photo collection of blooming vegetables:
Zucchini
Brandywine Tomato
Sweet Pea
Tomatillo
My first turnip harvest! 1 lb of snowy white globes

While formally trained as a mathematician, I am passionate about learning and teaching skills that allow me to be more self-reliant. This means growing my own food, making quilts, as well as preparing for small-scale emergencies and wide-scale disasters. I want to share my passions with you, and hope you will join me where ever you are on your journey through life.
