ROAD TRIP TO THE FARM

The Master Gardeners visited Reyer Farms last week. Beautiful zinnias blooming nonstop.

Pretty sunflowers too.

Lots of heirloom tomatoes.

Nice views.

JULY IN THE GARDEN

 Everybody has been busy freezing and preserving. Some are now cleaning up the gardens and planting fall crops.It was awful dry the first part of the month , but I do beleive it has rained every day for he last two weeks. It is hard to get outside as the mosquitoes dive bomb you. I for one am looking forward to a fall garden and hoping the mosquitoes will go away.

This is a new rudbeckia I picked up-love it. The rudbeckias are tough plants, they are blooming in my garden now and will continue through the fall.

HEIRLOOM TOMATOES

Some beautiful heirloom tomatoes from Brittany's garden. She has been selling at the Ms. Farmers Market and the Livingston Market in Madison, as well as letting people come pick. See the small one on the left top with the orange top?-that's my favorite.

This is what I have been making-salsa. Hope you are all enjoying some good tomatoes!
