Greetings! |
Much of our time during the month of June was spent in the garden. We planted Bitter Melon which has really jumped, caged 250 tomatoes, planted chard, lettuce, beets, carrots, beans, marigolds, tomatillos, peppers, basil and dill. The apple trees look like they will produce plentifully and we hope to have more dried apples for you this year. Everything is growing very well due to sufficient rains. We are now beginning to prepare our meals from the garden. A real treat. Soon we will be harvesting and either canning or drying. We have harvested mint and dried it in the greenhouse for one of your premiums and made mint tea for everyone here.
Since the last update the old barn roof has been rebuilt thanks to your help! It looks quite beautiful especially in comparison to what it looked like previously. We are very happy to have secured the roof before winter. Thank you again.
Please enjoy reading this update for June.
Haribol!
