First, my apologies for the delay in pictures. It has been a busy year so far with work, my parents health, and just being busy in general. As you can see, the garden has been quite good. The asparagus was late, but it yielded good. It's put to bed for the year, weeded, fertilized, and mulched.
We are enjoying the triple kale treat this year. We chose 3 varieties and all are unique. Makes a great morning "green shake". The chard is also doing very good for cooking and smoothies. As late as the year was, cold and wet, all the crops are coming on good now.
One thing with the heat, we are learning that the raised beds need a lot more mulch and water. They plants are really growing.
Enjoy the pictures. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Bill
