Our spring garden is doing very well so far. I have taken extreme measures against the birds this year but despite all of that, I found two green tomatoes with what appeared to be a pecked hole in it. I have such a love/hate relationship with these winged creatures! That's why you will see rubber snakes draped over my prize crop of tomatoes!

Behind the bunny you will see the beginnings of Purple Hull beans -
the purple beans magically turn green in hot water! |
 |
| Our patio tomatoes and sugar cherry tomatoes are producing a nice crop! |
 |
| The sugar cherry tomatoes produce fruit like a grape cluster and are just as sweet |
 |
| Beautiful and fragrant basil |
 |
| Cabbages are doing wonderfully. I had to pick some very fat and hungry worms off of them. No chemicals please. |

| the tomato cages do double duty as green bean poles |
