We are on our second batch of radishes this season. Way better than store bought!

I had to wait. The spinach I planted last fall was too good to pull up. It finally went to seed. And, you’re right...nothing compares.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Seems late this year, but I’m happy with it.

Happy gardening Dom.

Everything looks great RG. Noticed the hummingbird feeder, I've had one visit my yard so far.

Thanks ! Nice to have the time to play in the gardens.

There’s two feeders there and we have several regulars. We have Cardinal Climbers planted on that trellis just for the Hummingbirds. They should do well in that spot.

Well I got something done this afternoon after doing it at that thing called a job...
A layer of compost and got my fence up.  Even got some things planted and watered.  More to go.  Time for a beer and a tequila.. 8)

Awesome Dom. A well deserved break.

Very nice Dom.  I'm not in your league but my small and well defended garden is in for 2021. You can never have enough hobbies, keeps me out of trouble and moving.

Got most of the plants in and the fence up and operational. Need to plant the seeds for the carrots, radish, beets, green beans, and butternut squash still. If we have more room I'll stick in some more beets for the greens.

Girls are hard at work. Garden should be well pollinated.

Nice!
I have a native bee house that’s booked full!  Love those little bees. No honey though >:(

I rarely eat the honey. Mostly just while spinning out of the comb. I don't sell it,  mostly give it away. I keep the bees to mess with and the pollination. Very interesting social structure.

I have 2 hives now. I gave up buying package bees a while ago. Too expensive to not make it through the winter. My dad and I do tear outs occasionally as well as getting swarms when we can. My bees made it through the winter this year and I split them so I have 2. Ive  had as many as 8 but that's alot to manage.
