How the garden grows -- veggies




As much of the country experiences a hot summer, in the Northwest, we are having cooler than average temperatures. My zucchini plants seem stuck in a rut, with tiny fruit. However, kale is king, and growing abundantly (last week I gathered a 5-gallon bucket full of kale leaves). The artichoke plants seem happy as well. Today, I harvested my elephant garlic. So without any farming skills, we are occasionally able to eat home-grown produce.
