First trip to the garden

A few of the broccoli plants

Some of Summer Squash plants

Some of the explosive growing herbs

Yesterday I paid my first visit to my friends garden/urban farm. We planted some Summer Squash and it is exploding! I planted some corn and some popping corn.The corn we planted will come up in September or October. My friend planted a variety of herbs that are also growing really well. One thing that I did not know, is that we ordered and planted pickling cucumbers. Our first cucumber is almost ready to be picked. The gardening season has been a little slow with all the rain and bad weather. This year we did not plant the watermelon like we did last year. This year we expanded the garden by tilling another little strip of land right next to the patch where we planted last year. I will be visiting the garden a little more than I have been. So far I have been able to water and do some weeding. I will be going up to the CSA farm around July 29. I will certainly add posts from my time on the farm at the end of the month.
