Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast
It's hard to believe that only a month or so ago we were talking raspberries. The garden really is a bit too much to handle right now. As Airbourne, the Greta Van Fleet of AC/DC put it, " Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast ." They are done now, and the canes that produced this year need to be cut back. A couple of vacations happened (Pictured Rocks Nat'l Park & Charlevoix, Michigan for the marathon & the Boundary Waters). And the garden exploded. The purple beans are popping. The snow peas are just about done. The zucchini have spawned. The tomatoes are there, but green. The cucumbers are producing. The carrots & beets are pretty much ready. The tiny, sad bit of lettuce has produced. The kale has been devoured by Asian beetles. The pumpkins & squash are blossoming and climbing the trellis. The sunflowers are blooming. Love summer.
