Saturday on the Farm

September 1, 2012 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy

I have a lot of pictures to share this week. I’ll start with what we harvested this week. I’m sure we harvested more yellow squash, as we’ve been eating it, and I put a couple of bags in the freezer this week. I guess I missed taking pictures of those.

More zucchini, and a few little raspberries. The ones that made it into the house lol

A yellow squash and green beans.

More green beans! The family prepped all the beans in both pictures tonight, so I’ll be canning them tomorrow.

I never tire of watching the butterflies on the butterfly bush.

I also never tire of taking pictures of butterflies on the butterfly bush.  🙂

Ok, now for the gardens. This is one end of our main vegetable garden. Two rows of green beans on the right. To the left of those, are the yellow squash plants in the front and the zucchini plants in the back. Where the cardboard is pulled back and you see soil is where we planted carrots and beets earlier this week. One row of each. Nothing was up today when I took this picture. In the very back left, you can see the cucumbers growing on the fence, and on the ground.

Those are Armenian Cucumbers. This the first year I’ve grown them. They came highly recommended. I found two large ones today.

And several small ones. Now I have to look up when they are ready to pick. I can’t wait to try them! I’ll also be using them to can relish and pickles.

We haven’t had any peppers so far this year. Now that the extreme heat we had this summer is over, the garden is really growing Here are a few green bell peppers. Maybe we’ll get to eat some later this week!

This is a Roma Tomato plant. Or maybe two. I’m not sure. Look at all the flowers! There are also several tomatoes growing on it, too. We also have slicer tomatoes growing and should have some ready later this week.

We also planted radish this week. Here are a few. Cute little things.  🙂  We also planted lettuce and spinach in the raised bed behind the house. There are a lot up, and I’ll share a pic of them next week.

The yellow squash is really growing. Here’s one plant. See all the little squash?

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
