~ I've been busy as the ..................................

bumble bees !

Trellising the Roma tomatoes .................

pulling weeds from around the green beans and peppers.


Training cucumbers to run up the corn stalks.


Enjoying the early morning beauty .................

Watching the bumble bees pollinate the cucumbers.

Gathering basil , chives and garlic to make herbal vinegar.

Thank-you Millie , for mentioning your favorite flavor ,

just had to try it.

Gathering wild herbs and the daily garden harvest ........

Watching the sunflowers grow ...................

and enjoying some playtime too !

What have you been enjoying ?
