Early Summer Farm

Besides weeding every couple of days and feeding every couple of weeks, the farm is growing on it's own without much intervention from me.  I don't really have a farm, but that's what my New Jersey Hubby calls it.  The only animals are two cats that enjoy fertilizing the garden when I'm not looking.  Nevertheless, I am wondering if the NEW RAISED BED will contain the plants growing in it.

  


The squash, especially is taking off.  The leaves are gigantic.  It's hard to see in this shot because I was focusing on the lovely blossom.













I have my first squash blossoms!
 










The pole beans are climbing and doing great.  No signs of beans yet though.








                   The beans are in the middle of the two squash plants.






The Heirloom tomato plant in the middle has outgrown it's cage.  I think I really needed a trellis to support it.  I have green tomatoes on each plant, Roma, Heirloom, and Yellow.













All in all, the garden looks very different than a few weeks ago.
