Garden, week 5

The garden is really doing great with all the rain we've been getting every night.
We have been eating a lot of the fresh herbs and leaf lettuce, and mom got her first red tomato on her plant. My Roma tomatoes continue to grow, but no color yet.
We have also introduced Grammie's big plastic owl to hopefully keep away whatever is eating the strawberries!



There is even a little eggplant starting!




Also:
more blackberry flowers
there are 5 tiny little rods of summer squash
ANOTHER potato plant has appeared from the compost pile. We will replant it somewhere less disruptive.
