So far we've been having a great year in the garden. Our garden is about 90' by 90' excluding the wheat.
I successfully grew a patch of spring red wheat - sowed 10 lbs and harvested about 50 lbs - and my harvesting skills are lacking as I am sure that I was also seeding the next crop at the same time.
We planted 6 different varieties of potatos to see what would grow well here, and have had a great harvest still ongoing.
we had a great run of peas and beans, zuccinni and summer squash.
I'm pretty sure our corn cross polinated and the sweet corn went straight to starchy, but the dent corn still is looking good. The sweet corn will be going to the pigs.
We have melons galore too - you'ld have to ask the DW which are which, cause I can't keep up with the varieties she planted.
Grapes, asparagus, and artichokes we started this year for future years all did well too.
Our tomatos have been off from last year's volume, but our neighbors all seem to be in the same predicament - a late frost really stunted them this season. The frost also trashed several of our fruit trees.
We've been dehydrating, pickling and preserving as much as we can.
