The garden is ahead of the game this year due to the abnormal warm spring. We have tomatoes on the vine (they are still green) and have been partaking in delightful greens such as spinach, romaine and other lettuces, mustard and beet too. Here is a photo of some of the chard, dill, beets and lettuce greens growing in the front. The back area has a few tomato plants doing well for this time of the year, too. Several plants are 5 feet tall already and it's only June 6th, 2012.

Our first yellow pear squash is set and starting to grow, as well. this is a wonderful time of the year, hardly any mosquitoes too!



The back area of the yard is now growing Cascade and Chinook hop vines. The hops will eventually make their way into a home brew, if all goes well. they were planted in early May and are over 6 feet tall already! Yikes!!


This above image is of the Cascade hop. it is much more vigorous then the Chinook at this point in time.

Have a great spring and summer 2012 and remember that the children's pottery classes are filling fast, so call to reserve a time for you child.
 and as always, Cheers,
