The Week In Pictures (June 1)

 African daiseys added to the tomato and pepper bed for a little color.

 Yarrow opening up in the herb bed.

 Although a non-native invasive, what is summer without the narcotic aroma of honeysuckle; pure heroin! I make no attempt to limit this in our wild perimeter areas. Unfortunately, like strawberries, they just don't last long enough.

 Not sure how much longer the girls can be considered pullets or when we need to start calling them "hens". Either way, their combs and plumage are nearing full color, their feet are bleaching out nicely and most days are "four-egg-days" so all of the ladies are finally putting out.

 More perennials in the tomato patch.

 Romas in full bloom.
The early section of the Food Patch; two caged grape tomatoes with small fruits forming, chard, kale, bok choi and mixed salad greens. Damn life is good.
