Cucumbers are coming in real nice. We’ll be pickling soon.
Zucchini’s blossoming and the Brandy-wine Tomatoes are loving this heat.
Peas need trellised, corn is coming up and so are soybeans.
Pumpkins popped up a day ago and the bush beans are getting big.
Chickens frolicking and a bunny. I gotta do something about the bunnies. They’re eating up all my beans.
Broccoli. Nothing better than fresh broccoli marinated with soy sauce and garlic and cooked on the grill.

Looking great Danny!!
Wow! Looking good!
Wowza. Looks good enough to eat! 😀 How big is your gardening space there? It’s fabulous.
Thanks Elen, it’s 2 acres.
Great pictures!
Garden is looking good. Lucky you to have heat, we have had so much rain here in the UK in the past 10 days, everything is growing including the weeds, but we need the sunshine to ripen things off!!
Isn’t it exciting to see everything coming in? We’ve already had squash, green beans, potatoes, and onions ripe; and just this morning I picked my second batch of blackberries! Cobbler anyone? 😀
It’s exciting isn’t it?
Looking good!
Everything looks wonderful: we have soooo many bunnies, too, this year; I don’t want to destroy them but I do want them gone…
Looks good! I just enjoyed watching videos of your dog chasing the deer!
Our double fence seems to keep the bunnies out the past few years.
Looks very good! Great to see hens with a normal hen life (outside!)
So exciting to see all that growth! Well done!
There is nothing better than cooking freshly picked veg on the grill.. you have a fantastic garden!! c
I started out sevarel years ago learning as I went along and now this year I have decided to have just herbs in big containers with sand and pea gravel throughout the walking area next year. The first year I dug everything really well and used lots of peat and manure and it was wonderful. But as time went by I got older and tireder of doing all that work so this year I still have the herbs, roses, raspberry bushes and just one big tomato plant and one pepper plant. It’s easier to just buy from the farmer’s market only 15 minutes from my house. The point is that I have been out there every year and it is so healthy for mind, body, and soul, that I will probably always have something in that corner. Like I heard from so many gardeners when I started, it can always be changed or moved if you don’t like it or it doesn’t work for you. That’s the great part, it is NOT SET IN CONCRETE. Just have fun!! Just do what you love instead of struggling to do it right. Any plant that makes you go oooooh, get it.
Yes, recently learned bunnies can reek havoc on the garden and hear I was blaming a deer till I saw Mr. Fluffy tail bouncing out the other day.
Everything is looking great!
This is all gorgeous! We’re still pretty early in the season up here in MN, but I’ve been picking arugula and green mustard, a few strawberries, and am about to harvest the first batch of peas today or tomorrow. Hurrah for bounty!
Beautiful!! Them wascaly wabbits chomped our strawberries to stumps here 😦 Time to put the pup in the garden eh?

I agree – best way to cook broccoli. If your pumpkins are just coming up, there’s some hope for mine (just had to resow them)!
I have got to try that with broccoli! Garden is looking good…
Liking the sound of the broccoli, marinated and then grilled!
We’re very north, but have harvested and enjoyed rhubarb, kale (which I started indoors this past winter), lettuces and greens, and turnip. Found some wild strawberries yesterday too. Lovely to see how your crops are doing!
Wow…my cucumbers are WAY behind yours. They are just now coming up!
Home Depot sells poultry-barrier. It is an excellent deterrent against Wabbits provided it is installed in a way the Wabbits cannot get under it.
Everything’s looking really good! Tonight, as an ingredient in my sloppy joes, I used fresh green onion straight from my father-in-law’s garden. It was deeeeeelicious!
I’ve haddit wid wabbits!
They’ve eaten every on of my cantaloupe plants, and snagged the last of my lettuce. Now they’re eating the tops off my sweet peppers. Last year no problems, this year grrrrr, next year fence.
Looking good!!! We’ve been enjoying peas this year and some beans…first yr of success where we’re currently living. I’ll have to get some pictures up. The raspberries are just now coming in, so fun. I love your blog and your chickens are lovely :).
It’s lovely to see all these things growing so well. Ours are coming on but we have a long way to go to catch up! It’s still a cold wet summer with just occasional warm days. 🙂
I am so jealous!
Great looking garden, thanks for sharing.
your garden loks fantastic, love the chookies 🙂
Everything looks great!
Tried the broccoli last evening and loved it. Thanks for a new favorite.
Your garden is coming along nicely! Awesome photo’s!
Jealous of your warm weather. Your plants look wonderful. Here in the pacific NW our beans our languishing – things are coming along but looking forward to the warm, dry weather just showing up in the forecast.
Your produce is growing bigger every day! Mine too! My 5 courgette plants are growing a lot of courgettes allready! Lovely!
I’ve never prepared broccoli that way. I’ll have to give it a try!
I’m glad to see your cucumbers. Mine look the same. That must mean I’m doing it right.
Reblogged this on Ohio Prepper's Blog.
that really looks good
Hello!
Re Agent Orange Corn
Good start, but misses the point. The real danger lies in how the GM corn affects the inside of our intestines. (See below)

Dow has developed a genetically modified corn called “Enlist,” which is resistant to 2,4-D.
Controversy flares over “Agent Orange corn”

Wonderful looking garden! I’m green with envy, but in a good way. Look forward to the posts on pickling!
😦 I may have to get rid of my chickens, I already had to get rid of 5 , I have 5 left.. Before I got them i asked the dog catcher here if they were allowed, she said yes. Now i find out they may NOT be 😦 Iv only had them 1 month. I should find out something tomorrow, if i do i have to give them away tomorrow 😦 it is depressing, I thought dog catchers new the town laws on animals. She herself has 2 horses, and a donkey 😦 But I may not be able to have chickens.
The lady at city hall said shed have to wait until tomorrow to ask Mayor if chicken tractors were allowed. If I knew this Id saved myself money and getting use to them 😦
What a great site! I will revisit when I have more time. I like the idea of sharing the harvest. I definitely have thought about this! I sell eggs at work [I teach]. Maybe this summer I’ll give the excess away. Looks like you might like dairy goats. I recommend Nigerian Dwarf Goats. Great pets, great milk, and of course…great fertilizer and compost!
Nice looking spread, like two different worlds. here in the gulf south, my cukes are done and dried up,tomatoes,still a few but hardly worth eating. guess its time for the heat lovin okra.
Thank you for liking my blog post. How lovely to see all this. It is going to take me a while to see all your posts, but I will do so.
Hey there Mr. Soulsby Farm…thought I might just meander along and visit for a while…I will bring a few of my feral cats from Serendipity Farm as we don’t have any rabbits at all where all of our neighbours are complaining about them frolicking with impunity…your chooks look as disobedient as ours are. Steve just had to sluice out his shed as ours are a bit precious about winter rain and have taken up residence on his heated propagation beds. We even got an egg on the beds the other day. Sometimes a picture tells a thousand words and these pictures are yelling out “SUMMER”! at the top of their lungs.
What do you do about the bunnies?
Curse those bunnies! They eat everything here too…grrrrr… Your veg garden looks great, you certainly have more to save than me! Good luck sending them on their way 🙂
Nice, healthy looking plants. I see bare ground around them. Do you mulch?

I’m so envious! It all looks amazing.
I have nominated you for a sunshine award, please see my latest blog for details:

very inspring garden and I love the chickie and bunny pics.
The garden looks great! One of our girls just told me today that you’re supposed to plant marigolds around the garden to keep the critters out. Of course, the biggest nuisances we have in our garden are the three dogs!
our garden is coming in too. not in the order we thought it would but still we’re thrilled.
I wish my garden looked so good!
Your garden looks terrific. Except for the tomatoes, the plants in our garden are puny and are well eaten by something. Today, we found a badger in the yard. Hm! 🙂
Everything looks so healthy!
The way you make broccoli is just like we make em! Good stuff.
