Staff Meeting
The kitties came to check on the garden.
They like to lay down right were I’m weeding, and watch me work.
Tending
The garden is growing quickly now.
Storms in the forecast for the next 4 days, with heavy rain.
Hope the garden can hang on thru this next round of weather.
Mother Nature please be kind to us!
Glorious Sunshine
The sun just makes things–better.
A week of storms, damaging winds and more rain than ever recorded in this Counties history.
The garden is slowly recovering, the water soaking in.
What you can’t see in this image; millions of mosquitoes!
The State Of Things
With busy days in the garden, I have been forgetting to pick up my camera!
Some chores have been checked off the list, with many more still to go.
Scraping the greenhouse paint and then giving it a fresh coat of color is still a big one to get done.
To bad Rosie can’t help!
It’s My Anniversary!
I have been blogging about this little garden for 3 years!
Spending time in my little greenhouse and garden provides me with so much more than fresh vegetables, herbs, and pretty flowers.
Sharing and chatting with people from all over the world–has fed my soul more than I ever knew possible.
Thank you to all who stop by.
Chocolate Anyone?
Chocolate Heirloom Tomatoes!
One of my favorites (yes, I do have LOTS of favorites!)
This years “Extra Sale” Dates:

I have a nice variety of Heirloom Tomato Plants again to share with my garden friends.
Herbs and some vegetable plants–all naturally grown!
Hope the weather warms up so we all can get those gardens ready!
The Color Purple
Purple Opal Basil
Can’t wait to be able to trim the flavorful, peppery Basil from the garden.
So pretty to look at and delicious to eat!
Plenty
There will be plenty of Heirloom tomato plants!
The greenhouse is filled with a beautiful crop of plants for my little sale this Spring.
Herbs too….I can’t live without my herbs–you should have some too.
Spring is warming my soul, as I get the garden ready for company.
Cilantro, here we go
When the cilantro goes to seed, it becomes coriander.
I filled my spice jars for the Winter. How wonderful to see my spice cupboard stocked with many of my own herbs and spices.
The remainder of the seeds were packaged for planting this years garden.
The first round of pots are in the warm greenhouse….
Cilantro tends to bolt quickly, so I will be starting more in a couple of weeks.
My goal is to have Cilantro for most of the Summer.
After all, Summer and salsa go together quite nicely.
