Here is the link to the first week's pictures.
The first bed: lettuce, beans, and peas.
The second bed: cucumbers, squash, and zucchini.
The third bed: tomatoes, peppers, and onions. As you can see in the lower right corner of the box, we have had a pepper casualty. The theory goes that a squirrel sat on it with his fat butt. He will become squirrel stew if he doesn't stop digging in our boxes.
The first tomato blooms of the season! From bed three, lower left corner
Our strawberry bed. The evil, evil squirrels actually dug UNDER the chicken wire and ate ALL of our berries and blooms. Needless to say, we were all very mad at them. So I (K) came up with the idea of putting sticks around the cage, holding the wire down and hopefully keeping the squirrels out. You'll have to check out Week 3's blog to see if it worked!
The fifth bed: peppers, tomatoes, and onions. Another casualty in the lower right corner of the bed, most likely due to another squirrel.
No harvest this week...because the squirrels ate everything and the blooms are just starting to come out.
Stay tuned for more updates!
