gardens in july (a video)

I’ve had a lot of thoughts lately but every time I try to put them into words it sounds like a jumbled mess. So I guess I’m just meant to give garden updates all summer.

All of the rain and storms haven’t been kind to our plants. Thankfully the raised beds keeps the water draining but the wind knocked down a lot of quinoa and tore through the tomatoes, and and the excess water has caused diseases and mold to grow.

This is just a little taste of what farmers have to deal with all summer and it sucks. To have nurtured something for so long and then see it fail due to mother nature is a bummer. But we’re doing what we can and learning along the way and still getting so much stuff to eat!

Here’s a kind of boring garden update video!
