Summertime is here! I think Midwest summers are hot and humid and awful, but our garden doesn’t seem to mind. Between the plentiful thunderstorms, the perfect plot left by our landlords, Randy’s hard work (with my help), and some Miracle Grow, our garden has taken off! The zucchinis are threatening to take over everything, but the other plants are doing well for themselves nonetheless. Next year I will be smarter and give the squash some more room away from the other vegetables. Besides the zucchini squash, we have tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and okra. We have a few small cucumbers already, and some green tomatoes starting. I’ll post more pictures, but the before and after pics are pretty impressive already.
