I have to say I am enjoying this summer more than I have any for a long time. Maybe it is being home in Maine or I just enjoy the garden I am growing.
I think I am taking lesson from our characters in the series, only my garden is all container gardening. I used everything I could find to grow the veggies. You see we sit of a cliff, so no depth to the soil. The plants hit some snags to start, even a late frost that wiped it all out. Everything finally took on the third try and now they are growing like crazy.
My main goal is tomatoes, I would like to can some for this winter. Unfortunately, the garden is about a month behind so I am not expecting a lot from the squash end of things. But the tomatoes are great and I should get a good harvest of them.
One big surprise are my eggplants, they are now growing like crazy. I do love to watch this fruit grow they are beautiful plants and to see those globes form is fascinating to me. I do hope, if you have a garden, that it too is doing well.
Next year I want to expand as well as delete many of the plantings. I hope we can start exchanging recipes.
