Took most of the plants from the balcony and transplanted them into my raised bed at the community center. These Nasturtiums were just so happy here, that I let them stay. Should be some flowers soon.
Here are some of plants I started from seed in their new home. I have lots of extra tomato and bean plants that I gave to the other gardeners. I kept all the okra plants for myself. John did a great job of spacing out the stuff. Those cages are for the plants to climb up. It was just a surprise to find them in yellow and red.
This is Jennifer who seems to be running the whole community center. She has the most interesting accent - a British woman who has been in Oklahoma a long, long time. And the most beautiful personality. She is hammering some giant black metal numbers on the raised beds that are not called The Pea Patch. Mine is number 17.
How many of these raised bed are there?
ReplyDeleteI love the colors you can get in tomato cages now. Makes it a rainbow out there. Neat raised beds.
ReplyDeleteHi Terri and Jill - There are over 40 raised beds. All you have to do is shovel in some of the provided dirt to level them out form the winter and stick in your plants. Pretty neat. I couldn't believe that there was no waiting list.
ReplyDeleteahhh....harvest time is the best and so enjoyable to eat and share. Gardening is a lot of work but reaping the benefits is so much fun! Can't wait to see it grow:-)
ReplyDeleteHey Jeanne! I have a few green beans ready right now. I'll put up a picture tomorrow. (If I remember to snap it before they are buttered and consumed.)
ReplyDeleteNice raised beds. Gardening is so much fun, especially if you get to eat the stuff you grow.
ReplyDeleteWell Sanda, I am having some of my beans for lunch today. I almost picked them for breakfast - scrambled eggs and green beans is a favorite breakfast for one of my sisters-in-law. The green beans take the place of hashbrowned potatoes.
