I have a pond in the center of my garden. I Harvested these Iris’s from the woods, here they grow wild. Just a beautiful site when they begin to bloom and when in full bloom!

Spring Lettuce
I planted this Asparagus bed back in 1999. Every spring they push their way to get eaten raw! I can’t say I have ever cooked any, I eat them straight from the garden. So Good!
* Spring Mix and Fresh String beans *
Strawberries are doing very well this year. The Plants multiply so much, I have some plants to share.
Broccoli
Tomato’s /Zucchini
Eggplant
Fresh Mint Drying Refreshing Tea on a hot Day
I grew this much Garlic this past year. I peel all of it and put in Olive oil to last me longer. Other wise it seemed to dry up and then I would have to compost it..
Cooking straight from the garden. O Yea!
Cutting fresh peppers to pickle in vinegar. I roasted some tomatoes, and hot packed them for later. You Just can’t beat the flavor.
It took a many years for my fig tree to mature. This year is the first time the fig tree is giving me enough to stew and enjoy the fresh fruit right in the back yard.
There is nothing better in the spring than a tomato sandwich on fresh baked bread.
