Summer happenings

Ira helped me make some sauerkraut! He went through the whole process with me this time. He will be making it on his own in no time! :)

We are starting to go into the food prep/preserving time of year! First harvests, herbs dried, foods fermented, berried frozen. Soon I'll be getting the canner out!


These beauties are from the community garden!


Getting ready to brew a big batch of lemon balm, ginger, lavender tea. Sweetened with a little honey. I've been making big batches of ice tea to beat the hot weather, so perfect. :)

Some more harvest from the community garden!

A sweet little frog in my garden. Just hanging out.

My squash just didn't do very well this year. Hoping it suddenly starts to rapidly grown. At least there are a few flowers on them. :/

Beets! Beautiful yummy beats. :)

Messages of love in the sand.

I should definitely do some canning. I always have SO MANY tomatoes.
That little frog is SO cute! Such a pretty green!
Your garden looks beautiful!
