Here are some shots of our garden and lots of goodies growing ready to feed our family, as you see we have a good onion bed and we love a pickled onion here so grew an entire bed of shallots.
We also got an entire farmers trailer pulled by tractor pile of muck this year and I am so grateful for this gold for the garden, we even popped some pumpkins and cucumbers in there to grow and they seem to be super charged.
Our layout has changed a lot since last year and we have had to do a lot more rabbit proofing and we have made more paths but we are now happy with our rotating grid system although the wild flower meadow was a flop this year as I think all the mice ate the many seeds we sowed. however we seem to have good success in growing tall grasses, well there is always next year after doing a bit more research.
We finally have 1 small greenhouse and it is already bursting at the windows with all sorts of plants growing on and we would very much like to have more glass houses bigger ones but they are hard to come by.
Above are two really pretty plants that grow in the garden and I have to keep weeding them out but what pretty weeds to have. Below is a Hot lips salvia and an Allium, a local lady stopped at my fence to comment on what impressive tight balls I had, I was a bit confused until she pointed.
Sophie is a monkey as always refusing to get out of the sprinkler and you can blame her with all this hot weather.
