In this warm spell we've been having, I have been concerned about the health of my garden. It's hard to get over there to water everyday and Mother Nature has not been generous with the rains. So I was a bit surprised when I went there to water today and found cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, shallots and lettuce that were ready to pick.
We discovered that Swiss Chard is not to our liking and though it makes the garden look pretty, we weren't much interested in eating it, so I dug them all up and composted them. Live and learn.
Looks like we have some nice peppers, watermelon and more cucumbers, shallots and tomatoes on the way! I planted more lettuce, if all goes well we should have a new crop by late September or early October.
