One of my favorite things about summer is having fresh fruits and vegetables right at our fingertips. My farmer keeps the crops shipshape and even does nearly all of the harvesting as well as some of the preserving.
As for me, I like to stroll around the yard and graze on warm tomatoes and blueberries.
The birds build their nests each year in the Kiwi where they are hidden by the big leaves.
We have a new peach tree and are excited to have several peaches this first year.
These big green peppers come in handy when we are cooking.
Pumpkins are a must and in all sizes.
We like to spice things up with hot peppers and planted several varieties.
This is our new Braeburn Apple tree with a small but really nice first year crop of apples.
This hummingbird feeder was a gift from my farmer and it is between the lavender and the Braeburn Apple Tree.
The old pear tree is loaded with fruit this year and we also have a new Bing cherry tree which has tripled in size but did not produce any cherries. Hopefully we will have a good crop next summer.
Happy Tuesday!
Wow, your fruits and vegetables look wonderful and abundant! Looks like the beginnings of great recipes.
