Garden: Summer 2009







We have had such a bad drought this summer, and so our garden hasn't done nearly as well as it did last year. Even with frequent hose waterings, the plants just haven't been able to produce very much vegetables! The most productive plants have been the cucumbers and basil! We also harvested a few cherry tomatoes. We have also gotten about 10-15 yellow squash from one plant. We are hoping that the cooler weather crops will do better. We are planning to plant lettuce, mesclun --salad mix, onions, swiss chard, mustard greens, and a variety of winter squash in October. We'll just have to hope and pray for lots of rain!
