......*PROGRESS*......


The last few days have been very productive....
The starts and seeds are reaching toward the sun and driving their roots deep into the rich soil. 
The construction projects have sped up and are looking wonderful.
and Our bodies and minds are growing stronger.





Rhubarb flower... we don't remember ever seeing this plant put off a flower before.. Really beautiful..  any insight?



And so begins another raised bed... 3 in total today! We lined the bottoms with gopher wire and weed cloth and are filling them up manure and soil..












OUR FIRST POPPY!



















The Greens Bed...
This is one of the beds in the main garden. The main garden was here when I moved in and had 6 large raised beds originally. This year we added the long 7th one up against the fence... Our greens bed was one of the first things to show signs of life this spring and the first to be planted. We were lucky to have some mustard, lettuce and chard seeds voluntarily sprout up this year..

Volunteer mustard greens from last year... SUPER spicy!




Baby Spinach





Yellow Swiss Chard that came up voluntarily from last year...



Sweet little Radicchio rosettes


Fern like, robust yet dainty Russian Kale...



















*(We also have Chinese Cabbage, Mizuna, Sparkler Radish, and various flower seeds planted in this bed.. )*






Looks like we are destined for yumminess!
