We have our usual array of volunteer sunflowers, which the goldfinches love to visit.
Cherry tomatoes, coming along nicely.
Apparently we found the sweet spot for our peppers and eggplants this year. I've never had single plants that have been so productive.
After I took this picture, I harvested some of this kale to make
kale chips.
And last but not least, of course I have to show the progress of the garden fort! It's filling up pretty well, though the Japanese beetles seem to think this is THE place to be. We pick them off as we find them.
So, that's just a little bit of what's going on as July comes to a close. Not pictured are all the failures. I'm finding some blossom end rot on some of my roma tomatoes, we've lost most of our zucchini to squash bugs, and some of my other kale plants are getting eaten up. So while the weather has been good this year, the bugs have been more of a concern than usual. Another typical year with our share of garden successes and failures.
