I have just a small area of raised beds, but this year we added at least three more beds than last year. Plus we added a bunch of old tires filled with compost, where we planted herbs and tomatoes.
Cucumbers and broccoli....
Carrots and onions...
Zucchini...it's finally all gone. We made zucchini fritters, zucchini chips, canned zucchini bread, steamed zucchini and I have one last one I have been meaning to make into zucchini Pie but haven't got around to yet. Here's a link to my pinterest board for zucchini and/ or marigold recipes...
Basil, silver mound, lemon thyme, winter savory and oregano and lavender and orange mint....
I will post soon with all this week's harvest and what we made out of it all...

in the meantime, here's a peek into my sketchbook. This page came about after the botanical sketches I did, and the gardening, it just naturally merged into a tangled web of flowers. I have so many new ideas for this... a new e-class (i know, I know... i haven't even finished the mandala e-class), a series of sketchbook pages and even acrylics. I have started about 5 pages already and will show you as I go hopefully.
At some point I need to get back on track and finish the
mandalas i have started. My deadlines have come and gone and been met
for the book and I will let you know when it will be available!!!!
And I will have more details about the mandala coloring book edition of the heArt journal online magazine!!!!

ReplyDeletewhat a fantastic garden and gorgeous illustrations!! We still have zucchini and tomatoes along with many other things, but alas, something got to the cucumber plants and they died very quickly after only having a handful of the produce.
