Garden Bounty

Well, finally, some significant produce from the garden.  The carrots are the result of a couple test "pulls" to see how they are doing.  Did I mention that patience in NOT one of my virtues? 
I've think I will have enough yellow squash from one hill to supply most of the North eastern corner of Cadiz township, yikes.  As for the potatoes, this is only a small portion of the early variety that we planted, not bad for our first year of tators.  Peas are all done and green beans are just starting, most of them don't even make it into the freezer, as I graze directly off the plants! 

Ah, the wonderful aroma of freshly cut herbs from my back room is heavenly.  Cilantro, 2 varieties of basil, lavender .........I love growing my own herbs.  I've got enough organic garlic this year for 10 families, but there's always someone that can use garlic and it's one of my favorites, so I won't be running out this winter!

Lots to do again this weekend, off to my 30th class reunion on Saturday, and Sunday is a bridal shower for my niece, so 2 trips to Byron is on the agenda.  I was hoping to sort sheep and wean lambs this weekend, but that will have to wait.  I'm also getting very anxious to be getting my last 2 lambs that I purchased home to their new pasture. Coming soon to OK Acres Shetlands: Crosswinds Nantucket.
Ta ta for now,
