harvest time.

this weekend we were able to get a few veggies from the garden!

here's how the garden is looking these days.

its kind of out of control, right? oh well.

but look, we've got tomatoes {which austin is anxiously awaiting them to turn}

cucumbers, big and small.

and corn and beans!

but check out the green beans and the first cucumber we harvested this weekend!

they were very delicious. our carrots and beets are beginning to poke their shoulders up out of the ground and the broccoli plants are getting pretty big. our strawberries all taste terrible {i'm told it's the wrong kind of dirt for berries} and our onions seem to be getting close to popping up, too. and we've still got potatoes growing on the porch, hopefully they will be more successful than the potatoes that were in the garden and all fell down...

and just because i haven't shared yet, i recycled some vegetable crates {that taylor gets food for his pigs in} and turned them into a little flower planter/display. it's not beautiful, but i  guess it's not bad, either... but the point is that the little wildflowers are starting to come up so hopefully soon they'll add some nice color to the front porch!

and that's our garden update!
