Peas Please!

The garden has finally yielded its first veggie other than lettuce: peas! We have 2 English pea pods and about a dozen more blossoms. We can hardly wait until they are plump and full of the first peas of summer.


The strawberries are growing bigger, and the carrots continue to do well.



The beans have put out more scarlet blossoms.


Even the cucumbers seem to have taken hold, and are sending out their curly spires.


And finally, both rounds of pumpkin seeds have taken off and we have about 14 seedlings!! Hopefully we'll have some great jack o'lanterns this year! This more than makes up for the giant sunflower seedlings that were completely devoured by hungry slugs - Ugh!!
