I haven't written as much about our garden as I usually do, but that plot of dirt is taking up a lot of our time! We had 2 gardens this year.....our home garden and our plot at the church garden. We only planted "large" things at the church garden....corn, pumpkins, cucumbers, watermelon and cantelope. We kept all the "high use" items at home.
We've been enjoying the fruit of our harvest A LOT! Many nights for dinner we have green beans, corn and watermelon for dinner. AND no one complains. In fact, they are silent...quickly snarfing down their dinners.
We are in the thick of harvesting raspberries right now. We had so many this week, I made my first raspberry pie. The pie tin was licked clean by my son (I didn't even have time to take a picture of the pie, they ate it so fast). I bottle my first batch of spaghetti sauce last week. Mmmmmm......
