Showing off our bumper crop of veggies - Just another reason why I love gardening a bumper crop of zucchinis and cucumbers from just two plants The yard is our outdoor living room all summer long and as you can see from the background everything is changing color and pulling energies back into the root system as perennial plant prepare for their longer winter sleep. Before the last gasp...the garden gives us a whole pile of produce that we can share with others.
