What did you get from the greenhouse or garden today?
I got two handfuls of peas and 3 cherokee wax beans. 💛

We are in-between at the moment - I was getting carrots and cabbage, just waiting on onions, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, peas, squash, zucchini, peppers...
Our growing season is quite short, (mid May through to mid Oct as we are at altitude, and the first frosts kill most things). I did cabbage, carrots, onions in the greenhouse for the first time this winter (just gone) and did reasonably well.
Our dirt is clay and rocks, and compacts down at the slightest thing, so I have to aireate around the plants 2 or 3 times or they get stunted.
Last year, only the potatoes/onions did well, everything else was poor... very depressing. Hoping for a better show this year, we had early rain, and I have watered more this year so fingers crossed. ☺️
and...
I actually got some giant flower containers recently and they seem to be doing well for the corn, eggplant, tomatoes and so forth! I even have a patio peach in a container.
And I started all green hosta seeds this year from my mom's garden, and I have 4 containers full of baby hosta plants now. It took a long while for those to come up, now I have to find out where to put them all!
