Volunteer Tomatoes
My Rain Barrel
My Abandoned Garden
Piles of Weeds!
It's FINALLY Compost!
Compost & Tomatoes!
Yep, those are nylons! (Great for tying up veggies!)
In all of the madness around here with trying to sell the house, my vegetable garden has set all but forgotten this summer while the weeds grew and grew and got way out of control. I never did manage to plant any of the seedlings I had planted (they all died!) So, imagine my excitement the other day when I found volunteer tomatoes had ripened in my abandoned vegetable garden, so today I went about pulling 3 foot tall weeds and grass that were choking the plants. I managed to pick 5 cherry tomatoes, which my boys gobbled right up! I also found that my compost bin was FINALLY ready after more than a year! I have been very inconsistent with the compost, so that's probably why it has taken so long... But, I am excited to be able to use the compost and even get a few veggies out of my garden after all! I have quite a bit of work to do out there still, so hopefully it's not too hot tomorrow to work in the yard!
