Welcome to Our Garden

Our garden is doing so well that I wanted to show it off.






Sugar snap peas grow on the bean tower that mom and I strung up a few months ago. They do well on the western side, and not so well on the eastern. I think those fast growing westerners block the sunlight for those slower easterners, but that's ok.





Charley explores our sweet banana and jalapeno pepper plants, alongside of our zinnias. There are a few stray sunflowers in there, too, thanks to the nearby bird feeders (thanks, birds! Sincerely!)[Phil enjoys watching the progress of our garden as much as I do!]



Where is Big Sky Country again? And what's happening out on that river? And, also, why aren't our green beans flowering yet? The garden inspires thought.








Cucumbers! These will be plentiful! Homemade pickles make great Christmas gifts.







More sugar snap peas! They are so good right off the vine.






Here are our tomatoes and more peppers. This the main garden. Mom and I (with the help of our neighbor, Mr. Bise) constructed this raised garden a few years ago.







First jalapeno of the season.












Here comes a passion flower vine! [shoe for scale]. Stay tuned for this one!
Here is the patio behind our house. We have planters containing more peppers.
