I'm working on a "cage" for the strawberries. The robins absolutely love to eat a small amount out of each berry. I did manage to pick and freeze a small bag of strawberries that the robins evidently missed.
YUMMY!!!!
Speaking of strawberries, the wild strawberries are back. There are really a lot of them this year. I guess they are just not sweet enough for the robins though.
Although the pea plants are not very big, there are a few pods on the vines.
I've been harvesting lots of lettuce for my lunches. I hope to finish planting this week.
So far, I've planted:
45 pepper plants (most from saved seeds)
41 tomato plants (some from saved seeds)
15 broccoli plants (most from seed)
15 eggplants
5 basil plants (from saved seeds)
5 celery plants
1 parsley plant

Two really long rows of beans (1 1/2 rows from saved seeds)
Lots of sunflowers from saved seeds
Two rows of peas
Two rows of beets
One row of radishes (before I knew about the take-over)
