Blooms at our place....

We  have been having some afternoon and evening showers this week, followed by a couple of mornings that have looked like this.....

Morning fog on Wednesday and Thursday.

This picture is taken from the back door and shows the garden, the back of our property, and on beyond.
It was later on Wednesday morning when I was able to take the following pictures....

Potatoes now in bloom.

If you look closely, there is a tiny yellow squash in there!

Green beans in bloom.

                        Cherry tomatoes are blooming, too!

 There are some other things planted in the garden as well - okra, sweet potatoes, lima beans, onions and you may have recognized the corn.   The garlic is beginning to show that it will be ready for harvest before too long. 

This garden is what The Husband works hard at keeping in order during this season.  We fertilize it with only our compost, and we use no pesticides.  It is truly an organic garden!   We are able to share our harvest with others, too.

I notice new followers!  Welcome, and I hope you enjoy coming along.  I really appreciate your comments.  One of my followers, Beth, forwarded others to my blog.  Hopefully you will head over to Day by Day with Beth Marie.  I predict you will enjoy it!

Have a wonderful Thursday!

    The Husband is doing a marvelous job of gardening. Love it, that it is truly organic gardening. So good for YOU, as well as for the earth. :-)

  2. Your garden is wonderful. It looks so good and your mulch looks wonderful. We will be working in ours this weekend.
    Isn't it nice to be able to harvest your own food?
    Beth Marie is a wonderful gal. I enjoy her blog too. Have a wonderful weekend Nellie.

  5. We also had that heavy fog here this morning. I didn't notice it on Wednesday, but that's the difference a few miles can make around these parts, I guess. The Husband always does an excellent job of keeping that garden nice and neat, and you have had some tremendous results from his work! I hope this harvest will be as bountiful as others have been! :-)

  7. My mornings have looked the same here.

    My walking trails and path my all look level but they have some pretty big hills in them too. I find that hills just don't show up in pictures. : )
    I get a pretty good workout walking along!

  10. That morning picture could be on a calendar or in one of those fancy,gorgeous books you put on a coffee table for guests to look at. Wow it is fabulous. As I look out the window its that very kind of morning here right now. But the sunshine will come. Nellie your garden is amazing. Really. Your husband has done a beautiful job of your garden. I am so impressed. I looked hard for the little yellow squash and could only see yellow blossoms but they will turn into such wonderful vegetables I know. I just love any kind of squash. Your garden is perfect as it is organic. Since my husband has had cancer we have gone to all organic vegies and fruits. And it has made a real difference. Thanks for a most inspiring post.
