Yes, rain is essential for streams & lakes, fish & animals, beautiful autumn leaves and the tourists all those things bring. But this much rain? I don't think so. Almost 9" to date this month. Enough already. Our container plants like it, but everything in the ground is swimming. On the up side, here's what can be found in our garden markets this week:
Early garlic
Spinach
Snap peas
Baby turnips & greens
Tender early greens
Yellow squash and baby zucchini
Beans
Baby carrots
Green onions
Strawberries are almost gone
Mulberries
More later on mulberries - we have them in our yard and they're so yummy sweet this year. Right now I'm off to enjoy the ten minutes of sunshine we're allotted this weekend. Happy Summer!
