Garden












The garden is doing great!

We have a new bed ready to be filled - more strawberries.

Winter squash went in today - except the pumpkins. I need to make a new bed for them.

Some of the onions are done and they came out today.

The peas are doing well too - it's our first time growing peas and I'm very excited! I just need to borrow a pressure canner form someone as peas can't be canned using a water bath canner.

The strawberries are looking good, hopefully they will be ready for jam-making soon. We went to town yesterday and got pectin and lids so everything should be ready as soon as they are. The second photo is of the strawberries we planted this year - they won't be ready until next year.

Otto and I spent some time hanging out in the garden today too.
