Some things are slowly coming along in the garden. In some ways it’s been neglected. We haven’t planted much this year besides the vegetable garden. It is turning into my kid’s domain, they spend lots of time out there.

I’m adoring the scarlet runner beans and sunflowers together. 

Lately we’ve harvested tomatoes, beets, summer squash, beans, eggplant a few potatoes, and cucumbers. Not a substantial harvest on anything, but enough that I don’t have any vegetables on my grocery list.

This looks better than last year. We did get the irrigation figured out better, using drain pipes. I also gave up on using the water turn in certain parts of the yard because it was too difficult and have used soaker hoses and the culinary water.
